One More Time

"Those who believed what Peter said were baptized and added to the church that day--about 3,000 in all."
(Acts 2:41)
Second Chances.
We all need it don't we?

Somehow I realize from the people around me,
The one's who really have a heart for Daddy God,
are those who know they've been given more than just a second chance in life.

There was this man named Peter in the bible.
He loved Jesus, and boasted his love for Him.
At one point, he trusted Jesus so much,
he even walked on water.

One evening, as Jesus was preparing His disciples about His coming Death and Resurrection,
Peter boasted that he'd follow Jesus to death.

Well before the sun even rose that evening,
Peter actually denied knowing Jesus 3 times.

That sucks doesn't it?
Especially when Jesus mentioned before that whoever Denies Him before men,
He'd deny that person before His Father.

But what did Jesus do?
Jesus, resurrected, made breakfast for him.
And showered him enough Grace,
for him to make a difference.

From 3 mistakes,
to 3000 souls saved.
That's 1000 times the difference.

Beloved, is that the kind of radical change you need today?
from a mistake to a thousand reason to rejoice?
Just know that there was once a person named Jesus who died for you.
And His unconditional love for you shall give you a new reason to rejoice soon.

That, Beloved, Is Grace.

And This Message, Glorifies Jesus
