Do You Love Me? Friday 7th Week of Easter
Three times Jesus asked Peter if he loved Him and three times Peter answered and said, yes he did.
Jesus asked Peter if he loved Him three times,
for the three times that Peter denied Him.
How many times have we denied Jesus?
How many times through our actions, our words and our attitudes have we turned our backs on Jesus?
Our pride, anger, selfishness, jealousy, sloth, gluttony, lust and gossip, are all acts of denying Jesus, be they great or small.
For every time we have denied Jesus, like Peter we must tell Jesus that we love Him.
We could spend every second of our lives telling Jesus we loved Him for each time we denied Him.
But it is sufficient that throughout the day we take a moment just to tell Jesus that we love Him.
And with every whisper of Love from our lips
it will leave our sins and denials further and further behind and draw our hearts closer to His.
God Bless
