Truth. Truth spoken like a double-edged sword…
Mark 14:27-31
27 “You will all fall away,” Jesus told them, “for it is written:
“‘I will strike the shepherd,
and the sheep will be scattered.’[d]
28 But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”
29 Peter declared, “Even if all fall away, I will not.”
30 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “today—yes, tonight—before the rooster crows twice[e] you yourself will disown me three times.”
31 But Peter insisted emphatically, “Even if I have to die with you, I will never disown you.” And all the others said the same.
Such tragedy for Peter. So many had to endure so much. Jesus took the brunt of it all when He conquered deaths dn sin, but other were feeling the weight of their sin just before Jesus took it with a him to the cross.
Peter would later be given an opportunity by Jesus to answer what he had done. Peter would shine in that instance also. We are all given another chance. As many as you need in fact. No, thus does not imply a free pass. But Jesus does not withhold love as punishment, rather He pours it on. More than you can handle in fact. All that is needed is for you cry out His name. Cry out to Jesus.
All that failed previously will become monstrous successes. Try it for a week, if you don’t like it…well. prayer is powerful. Let me know if you need some. Chances are I pray for you anyway. #JesusSaves
Amen.
