Though he surely was "was impetuous, erratic, vacillating—sometimes cowardly, sometimes weak, sometimes hotheaded", he loved the Lord (John 21:17). And Jesus surely was faithful to work in Peter to will and to do, and his two Epistles give evidence that Peter persevered. Gives me hope. I am so much like Peter. Yet I lack his boldness, which caused him trouble, but also God used in graet ways to glorify Himself. I wish I had a little of his boldness. Thanks for a great post.
