Jesus knows us better than anyone around...
in this passage... Peter says that he'd die for Jesus
that he'd go to prison for Jesus, but we all know
he denys Jesus, and Jesus knew that...
This was the first verse that was in the bible study
and it was verse i can relate to well.
there are so many times I tell Jesus that
I will stop doing this sin... I would change
and I will do all that... but at the end
i go back to my troubles... I go back to the sins
and as the bible study says in john 21...
Jesus shows that... even though we go through hard time
and sin so much... if we are willing to change and live for him
he's willing to forgive us...
our heart is the one that's not ready for forgiveness
because even though it's our fault that this has happened
Jesus is ready to forgive us for whatever we've done.
Jesus is reaching out to us...
let's reach back....
and let's love...

Really true stuff Dave, it is sad that the simplest things are the hardest for us to learn. Their is a quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson "Everything I need to know I learned in Kindergarten." I too try to make things complicated, when the truth is, all God needs is our hearts. We try to build up walls around it and pretend he doesn't notice. Just like Peter did in denying Jesus, so we often do in denying him access to our heart.
