Don'T Peter Out

Before the Saviour met His end upon the Cross of Christ, He washed the feet of each close friend, for each was highly prized. Though Peter looked and stared amazed at what God's Son would do, Such love for him was not embraced, 'I should do this for You! ' Yet Jesus said he must be clean, his soul was in great need... This was God's time to intervene, so Peter then agreed... Yet this same friend denied the Lord, 'I do not know this man! ' His coward soul proved him a fraud... How could he know God's plan? His expectations led astray, his hopes completely crushed... To him, it was like Judgment Day, now humbled, he was hushed... Yet Jesus prayed that he might stand and rise above it all... One day to hold Christ's holy hand and preach as bold as Paul... You've lost someone, I've lost someone... Like Peter, we've all wept... Yet through it all, let's love God's Son, the promises He's kept... So count your blessings in the Lord... Salvation here and now! That's why we stand in Christ assured, that's why we kneel and bow... Yes, there's a God and God is love, no God has greater worth... His grace for us is quite enough, more grace than we deserve. Life isn't always Sunday School... We must withstand the knocks! Just trust in God! He's not a fool... God thinks outside the box!
