TRUST FORGIVENESS! Peter spoke plainly to the crowd, pointing out their part in the murder of Jesus. He had the moral authority to do this because he had taken the responsibility for his own act of betrayal. He could also promise them forgiveness and the chance for new life, because this had been granted to him. When you find yourself wallowing in or denying guilt, turn to Peter and ask him to lead you to take responsibility and trust in forgiveness. |
