Cowardly Little Weasel

Yeah, that's my other name. Cowardly little weasel.

You see Peter and I are kindred spirits. He's prideful, a know-it-all, arrogant, and a total coward. I am too.

I believe being put in the time, place, and position of Peter in Matthew 26:30-35;69-75. I would shrink back and deny. My talk is cheap.

I'd love to believe that God would rise me up in such as way that I would confidently claim my relationship with Jesus...but the evident in my life all points to my repeated denial.

Here's the good news:

GOD used a cowardly little weasel like Peter TO CHANGE THE WORLD.

HE CAN USE ME TOO. YOU, TOO.

Thank you, Lord, for your faithfulness. For teaching a fool like me, great truths through your Word. Forgive my cowardliness. Forgive my denials. Use me any way you see fit to impact the world for you. Plant a courageous heart in me to step up and step out following you. I recognize my talk is cheap and only you can change me...I'm all yours,

I love you, Lord!
