Been there, done that!!!

Friday April 2nd, Luke 22: 59 About an hour later, someone else spoke up, really adamant: "He's got to have been with him! He's got "Galilean' written all over him."60 Peter said, "Man, I don't know what you're talking about." At that very moment, the last word hardly off his lips, a rooster crowed. 6 1Just then, the Master turned and looked at Peter. Peter remembered what the Master had said to him: "Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times." 62 He went out and cried and cried and cried. Been there, done that!!! Time and again, in one way or another I’ve been there and done that, and no doubt so have you. For us there is forgiveness and a call to be the church out in the world once again. For us there are fresh starts and the call to offer these fresh starts to others. Later we are reminded that Jesus restores Peter by asking him to “feed my sheep” three times. In the midst of our doubts, in the midst of our fear, Jesus restores us and calls upon us to “feed my sheep.” It is what the church does, it is what you and I are called to do.
