When Peter rejected Jesus three times, wasn’t it the biggest mistake Peter could do after all what Jesus did for him?
As Jesus said, the rooster crowed, and that’s when Peter came to his senses and understood what he had done.
That guilt which got into Peter could have destroyed him forever. But the thing here is, didn’t Jesus know that Peter was going to do it? He had even told Peter about it and Jesus could have easily stopped him from doing it too. But Peter did it.
Was it the end of Peter? No! That was the real start. That moment when he denied Jesus, he saw that loving, humble look from Jesus and that just changed him forever. It made him even more fervent for Jesus. It made him more trustworthy. It made him more stable.
That one look from Jesus changed him forever and later he was appointed to lead the ministries and all other followers.

This happens to us also. We get into trouble not because we don’t love Jesus but because of the deceiving Satan. Mostly we also come to our senses only after we do it. Why didn’t Jesus stop us from doing it? Maybe He wanted us to learn something out of it instead of crying for it.

Just the way Jesus used Peter’s mistake to transform him into a more fruitful person (a stronger person who even gave his life without any regret for Him), he is going to use what you call your failures or the things which you are afraid will destroy you forever, to bring out the best in you.

Not even a mistake in your life is gonna be a mistake if you get a hold on Jesus. The things which you thought were going to destroy you, which you thought was your end, is going to be transformed into a new beginning, making you stronger, more passionate and above all, transforming you as the most fruitful person.

So the bad memories you have, which disturb you all the time, the mistakes for which you are ready to get punished for is not going to be for your end but for your beginning.

The only thing we shouldn’t forget is to see that love of Jesus for you. The moment His love starts activating in you, your bad memories turn to useful chapters. Your mistakes turn to lessons. This brings out the best in you so that you are will be a tree full of fruits, making you the biggest blessing for heaven.

Yours mistakes, big or small, it’s not the end. Let His love work, and watch how Jesus transforms it as the beginning of a new and exciting life.

As told in the bible,
I BOAST IN MY WEAKNESS, FOR WHEN I AM WEAK THEN I AM STRONG!!

Chill… because YOU HAVE JESUS IN YOUR LIFE and I guarantee you, WITH HIM YOU’RE GONNA MAKE IT IN LIFE!!
