The third time he said to him,
"Simon son of John, do you love me?"
Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, "Do you love me?"
He said, "Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you."
Jesus said, "Feed my sheep."
John 21:17 NIV
Pete, I know you stuffed up. Let me down. Let yourself down.
Three times you were asked, and three times you denied knowing me.
But its OK.
No matter how big your stuff up has been, my grace is bigger.
No matter how you feel about it, my love absorbs it all...
And now I've got things for you to do... things that mean you'll be working with people.
People who make mistakes, who let themselves and others down.
People who stuff up.
So just as you've received grace, give it, as you've been loved...love people.
#grace
Joseph replied..."Dont you see, you planned evil against me but God used those same plans for my good, as you see all around you right now - life for many people..." Genesis 50:19-20 MSG The view from the drone. The different perspective. "God has been at work in my life despite, in fact within the hatred that you had towards me. Even though I couldn't always see it, I kept trusting Him, even when He was silent, when all hope seemed lost... God was at work... Can you see that now?" #faith #faithinthedark
