John 13: 36 – 38
Jesus prophesies Peter’s denial
Peter declares that I will go where ever Jesus goes… and yet Jesus stops him in his tracks and says, “Will you lay down your life for my sake? No—I don’t think so! You won’t just deny me, but you will deny me three times…”
Regrets come from knowing to do right and not doing it, from not allowing yourself to be who you know yourself to be, from not standing up but for compromising…
John 18:10 – 11
In the Garden, Peter shows his courage, strength, and power! But Jesus shows him true authority… Peter shows that he is lacking inner strength found through Jesus!
John 18: 16 – 17
Peter denies Christ in front of a little girl
John 18: 25 – 27
Denies Christ in front of a crowd
Denies Christ to the relative of the one who peter cut off his ear!
The Crow cries 3 times and peter is thrown into a place of regret…
Peter found validity and fulfillment in hanging out with Jesus but not being with Jesus. Regrets are common with missing the purpose of a moment, a relationship, a time period… Regret is missing out on an opportunity because you were afraid of the unknown, the stability, the safety net!
Today, what regrets are you dealing with? What do you need to let go, what do you need to be forgiven for, and what needs to change so your life can move from regrets to memories?
Today's choices become tomorrow's consequences! Choose today to begin to live a Life of No Regrets...
