I have decided to share a 72 day daily challenge with you each day until Easter, April 1st. We are doing this in our Relief Society, and I thought I would like to share it here as well. I shared a little about the challenge here.
Each day I will share the daily video here and then my personal thoughts about it after I have personally watched it. Today is Day 58.
Jesus Warns Peter and Offers the Intercessory Prayer
Jesus admonishes Peter to remain faithful and strengthen his brethren. Peter professes his devotion to Jesus. Jesus foretells Peter’s denial and then gives the Intercessory Prayer.
Luke 22:31-34
31 ¶And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:
32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.
33 And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death.
34 And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.
My Impressions:
I think we sometimes think we are stronger spiritually than we actually are, just like Peter did here. We have the best of intentions, and mean to do well. But the Savior knows us better than we know ourselves. He warns us out of love, if we will listen.
What did you learn from today’s video?
