The NIV 365 Day Devotional
Duration: 365 days
Second Chances
Three times Peter denied Christ. He renounced the person he had vowed to follow regardless of the cost. Have you ever been in Peter’s place? Have you turned your back on God? Have you experienced the pain and shame of realizing your betrayal? Take heart! God is a God of second chances. Note Jesus’ response to Peter’s failure. Three times he gave Peter the opportunity to affirm his love. He restored their relationship, reinstated Peter and assigned him a special task to do. If you’ve failed God, he wants to restore you too. Come back to him, and know that you’re forgiven, accepted and loved.
