This passage talks about Jesus’ warnings. It shows how even though he gave people, his disciples, warnings, they still did not listen to him and ended up betraying him. Peter ended up betraying him three times. This resembles society now because even though we are given warnings, we choose to go against them and betray people. It’s like lying or breaking a promise. People say that they will do something for someone else, but yet they still manage to break that promise and not do anything. Everyone knows how bad they feel when they are promised something but the person never fulfills that promise, I know I do. I have also been on the side where I did not fulfill that promise, and let me tell you, when I think about it real hard, I regret it. Just like Jesus promised to die for the forgiveness of our sins, we as a society need to look at that and fulfill the little but many promises we make in our lives. We must strive to not be like Peter, who did not fulfill his promise to Jesus, and betrayed him in the process.
PRAYER: Dear God, we ask that you guide us through the bumps and curves that life gives us, that we may fulfill the promises of life; big or small, few or many. We ask that you help us make good decisions for ourselves, and that we look at the warnings in life, so that we know where the dangers are and where to go on the path of righteousness. In your name we pray. Amen.
