This stood out to me today as I read. Jesus has prayed to keep Peter strong and to turn to Him again. If Peter would have to turn to Him again that means he could have chosen to not follow and live as he wanted. We need to continue to grow in the Lord and do our best to stay strong by filling ourselves with the word of God and in prayer. There is no magic prayer to keep us safe from our own choices, we must embrace Jesus and love God with all our heart, mind and soul realizing that our fight won’t end until we hear “well done good and faithful servant.” When we fill ourselves with the wisdom of God and the Holy Spirit leads us we choose life. But when we live for this world and don’t feel learning and growing matter we choose death. Don’t be comfortable in what you know, be willing to continue to grow and learn from the Lord so you can remain strong in Him. Amen
