http://www.gospelines.com "The Real You" Everyone who has been in church knows the answer to this Bible question, "Who denied Jesus three times during His mock trial and pending crucifixion?" The answer, of course, is Peter. No disciple has ever been treated so unjustly by preachers and commentaries. We always seem to stress Peter's failure and shame and fail to recall the rest of the story. Where were the other disciples during Jesus' hour of need? Except for Peter and John, they had all fled the scene. Peter was there because he was courageous. True, he failed, not because he was a coward but because he was brave. Peter the Failure was not the real Peter. The real Peter was there because he loved Jesus so much; the real Peter could not leave Jesus alone in this hour of need; it was the real Peter who drew his sword to protect his Lord. Jesus understands. He loves us not for our failures but for what we have it in us to be. He sees who we really are, even when we are defeated. Tommy Harrison, D. Min.
