"He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Simon Peter said in reply, "You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God." Matthew 16:15-16
I love this question and I love the Truth! Peter gave a great answer and he lived it. He didn't always get it right but Peter lived it. He was fearful, he was courageous, he lived it. The world around Peter denied the truth, it twisted the truth and Peter continued to walk in faith even when he felt weak, he never denied Christ in his actions. Jesus is the Messiah, He is the Son of the Living God, He is my God. I will live for Him, I will walk for Him and I will die to self for Him, even when I don't want too. What about you? I challenge you this morning to proclaim the Messiah in your life. He is the Truth, the Life and the Way, be bold, be courageous, go and give Him a way. Help those who are lost and can't answer the question. "Who do YOU say that I Am."
Dear Heavenly Father, You are everywhere, You surround me with Your love. I thank You for Your teaching, I thank You for the gifts of the Holy Spirit. Lord, use me today to be an instrument of Your peace, inflame my heart to speak for You. Be greater in me, than me. I pray for those who deny the truth, who are lost in the world and are seeking happiness. Shine Your light through all those who claim You as theirs. I pray for the upcoming men's retreat, come Holy Spirit and make Your presence known. I ask this in the name of Jesus, Amen.
Mary, Mother of Victory, pray for us.

What amazing love God shows us if we would just step out on faith and live for Him. He always loves us but we deny that love when we don't act.
Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4b
