The Equal Standing,

"Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who through the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ have received a faith as precious as ours"
(2 Peter 1:1)
If there's only 1 person who knew about Grace,
It would be Peter.

His whole life was a failed attempt on following Jesus.
And he ended up denying Him 3 times before He went to the cross.

And Jesus once said,
That anyone who denies Him before man,
He would deny that man before His Father.

But in the end, what did he get from Jesus?
Not just forgiveness,
But the scared responsiblity of
"Feeding and tending to the lambs and sheep of God."
That is grace.

And having done so many great things for Christ,
Peter still said that we and him are no different.
We all have the same faith, same standing before Daddy God.

Today, some of us care about position too much.
Some feel that it is only when they're given a certain title,
Can they be of influence or be considered to be serving Daddy God.

Titles and positions are nothing when it comes to serving.
Cause ultimately, when we face Daddy God one day,
Pastors, Leaders, or new believers,
we all will have the same status-
The child whom He loves.
