In the gospel this weekend
Peter speaks boldly of his love for you, Lord,
and his determination to stand by you
at all times and at any cost...
But you knew Peter better than he knew himself
and you correctly predicted that within hours
he would deny you three times -
and so he did...
He denied knowing you
as boldly as he had promised you his loyalty...
And sometimes
that's just where I find myself, Lord:
halfway between loyalty and denial...
When my weakness draws on my strength, Lord,
touch my life with your power and grace
and help me to be even half as faithful to you
as you are to me...
Amen.
