The Mess of Failure

Failure is something we all have in common. We’ve all experienced it.

In fact, if we’re completely honest with ourselves, it’s a very, very common occurrence in some way or another.

Jesus’ disciples were familiar with this as well. When Jesus was arrested, His followers scattered. Peter followed at a safe distance, but then, when it was suggested that he was with Jesus, he denied that he knew Jesus… 3 times.

In their guilt and fear and lack of understanding, Peter and some of the others went fishing one night. And there, in their failure, Jesus came.

Jesus stepped into the mess of their failure and brought purpose.

Will you SEE HIM – that He is not finished with you despite your failures?

Will you BELIEVE HIM – that there is so much more of Himself that He wants to show you?

Will you KNOW HIM – more and more and more as you walk through this life seeking, following, learning of Him?
