John 21: 7-8
Then the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, "It is the Lord!" When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his tunic (for he had stripped for work), jumped into the water and swam ashore. The others stayed with the boat and pulled the loaded net to the shore for they were only about three hundred feet.
Matthew 26:39
He (Jesus) went on a little farther and fell face down on the ground, praying, "My Father! If it is possible, let this cup of suffering be taken away from me. Yet I want your will, not mine.
Love Me with All your soul- your life- your will.
Do you think the water Peter jumped in was nice and warm? No! It was cold.
But that didn't stop him loving Me with all his soul.
Jump in the water and swim with all your will toward Me.
Three hundred feet in cold water- far or not far? Peter could have waited with the others in the boat.
This time it was not about walking on water, but his extreme passion for Me would not allow him to wait.
Remember this is the one who denied Me and would not claim Me.
But then My Resurrection occurred and he was forever changed.
Experience My Resurrection every day. I am here waiting for you to jump in with all your soul.
Even in the Garden of Gethsemane I was teaching you what it means to love Me with all your soul.
To desire My Will over yours is the answer.
Even when you can't truly pray this, admit it to Me, talk to Me. I understand.
Pray daily, hourly, never cease praying that you will desire My will over yours, and I will transform you from the inside out.
My grace is sufficient for you. My mercies are new every day.
Surrender your soul- your will to Me.
For only when you find rest in Me, will your soul find peace.
My peace I give you. It surpasses human understanding.
Remember your heart is unique to Me. I miss you specifically when you don't seek Me and worship Me in the way only you can.
Don't worry or compare yourself to others. Be you. The unique you I created specifically to worship Me in the way only you can.
Do you love Me?
Feed My lambs.
Do you love Me?
Take care of My sheep.
Do you love Me?
Feed My sheep.
