Peter was a passionate and emotional disciple. He saw many miracles, walked on water, and said he would follow Jesus anywhere; yet at Christ’s trial Peter denies Him three times. Guilt and shame made Peter discouraged. He’d forgotten the promise Jesus had given him: You are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church. Like Peter, we get discouraged when we feel like we let God down. The enemy uses discouragement to keep us down. The Kingdom does not operate on a “three strikes and you’re out” principle. The Scriptures tell us that if we fall we are to get back up. Jesus will never let you go. He loves you too much.
