Testify
I JUST LOVE PETER. Sometimes, you’ll hear pastors and theologians
give him a hard time for nearly drowning due to a lack of faith when
he attempted to walk on water to Jesus. Or they’ll criticize him for not
being in tune with God’s sovereign plan when he ripped out his sword
and sliced off the ear of one of those who had come to arrest Jesus in
the Garden of Gethsemane.
But to me, Peter was the ultimate picture of courage. Throughout
his life, both while he walked with Jesus and after his Savior’s death
and resurrection, Peter was so brimming with zeal and excitement
about what Christ had done in his life that he could not help but
testify about what he had seen and heard.
In other words, Peter’s life had been so radically transformed that
he literally could not contain himself—he could not keep quiet—
about Christ’s intervention in his life.
