Bible Marginalia Series- # 137
Keep coming back to the book of John.
How many times haven't I given thanks
that "I am not like Peter"?
That very faint glow that somehow
tries to lift me up from this blatant
denial of being a follower of Jesus.
And then I remember-
the times I remained silent,
could have added to a conversation,
but rather chose to be anonymous.
Day in and day out.
Denial- for what I could have said,
should have said, almost said.
Or maybe a diverting of the topic
so I would have to do make
"connections" for people.
Forgive me, Lord.
And then I rest on the grace.
Grasp it right to me.
For in each of those fallen times-
I yet, by grace.
have been carried right to the new point.
Forgiven and Redeemed.
And by Grace will carry on.
Supplies:
Easy to do-
just paint and stick.
Acrylic paint- Target
Various Alpha letter stickers
Illustrated Faith - words and word washi
Washi tape
Colord pencils
Fine point Sharpie- non-bleed pen
