Thought For Today

But he (Peter) denied it (that he was with Jesus) before them all, saying, “I do not know what you mean.” Matthew 26:70

Lord I know this event so well and this was denial # 1 for Peter. There will be two more just as You predicted. Peter didn’t know what was going to happen to You and he could not risk having the same thing happen to him.

I can’t find fault with Peter. Who of us can be totally sure we would not do the same thing given the same circumstance.

I have no doubt in my mind that Peter loved You but he was human and he was weak. We are no different than he was. We too are human.

Lord we thank You for Your power and Your strength. Thank You for always being with us even when we disappoint You.

Thank You for Your unconditional love.

Oh how we praise You and thank You

Thank You Lord.
