Jesus Recycles your Failures

it is easier to learn from other people's failure than from our own. So let's learn from Peter. One moment he is swinging his sword and the next he is following at a distance, then sitting, then denying Jesus. For Jesus, Peter's denial is a huge social taboo. Was Peter trying to satay alive at all costs? Will you stand up before men at the risk of you life in order to own Jesus? Peter's failure began with over-confidence. Temptation cam as a surprise and his confidence was damaged. Like people who neglect the means of grace. He became focused on the wrong things. Jesus warned Peter, and by extension, me and you, but Peter did not take that warning seriously. have you become over-confident and started fallowing further behind? You have sent yourself up for failure. You have an opportunity now to come back to Christ.
