"PETER, DO YOU LOVE ME?

We all know that Saint Peter deny Jesus three times fulfilling Jesus
prophesy: Before the rooster crows you will disown me three times.
Poor Peter, he cried bitter tears of repentance for what he did!
But believe it or not… We all may have a Simon Peter in us
rejecting Jesus over and over until we accept Him as our Savior!
To disown means to refuse to acknowledge as belonging to oneself.
TO SET APART! If we set apart ourselves from Jesus now,
He will set apart himself from us in the judgment day!
When we are not accepting, we are rejecting! We are denying!
The very same thing Saint Peter did to Jesus!
After his resurrection, Jesus appeared to his apostles three times,
on the third time, He invited them to dine with him, and after dinner,
He asked Saint Peter:
Peter son of Jonah, do you love me more than these?
Yes Lord he said, you know I love you.
And Jesus said: “Feed my lambs”
Again Jesus asked him:
Simon son of Jonah do you truly love me?
He answered: “Yes Lord you know that I love you”
Jesus said: “Take care of my sheep”
The third time He said to him:
Simon son of Jonah do you love me?
He said: “Lord you know all things; you know I love you”
Jesus said: “Feed my sheep”
It is not hard to understand that Jesus wants proof of our love!
And that proof would be to take care of his sheep feeding them
not with material food but with the true spiritual food to grow up
healthy physically and spiritually with his Word: THE BIBLE!
Simon Peter repented and served the Lord the rest of his life!
We cannot accept and reject at the same time!
If we rejected Him before, now is time to accept Him!
And begin to serve our Lord as Simon Peter did!

PETER: DO YOU LOVE ME?
TAKE CARE OF MY SHEEP!

IS JESUS LORD OF YOUR LIFE?
PRAISE THE LORD!
