Restored

Peter’s life is a picture of a lifetime of Gospel growth. Strength & weakness, sinner & saint, courage & cowardice. The moment on the beach where Jesus “restores” Peter is a moment marked in time for Peter, but becomes a reassuring moment for us… no how matter “strong” we think we are or how “fallen” we think we are… Jesus meets us. Jesus not only allows Peter to say words (“I love you”), but Jesus speaks words of assurance over Peter’s life – that God’s plan will have its full effect. Peter will become all that God has planned for him to become.
