Peter Sword



Lord, that you see the finished work of art in all of us

That you bring many of Your sons to Glory

Help me understand the rock of Peter within me

That You are the author and finisher of our story



So quick to react we are in action and in speech

A front runner Peter was he, beyond even the most beloved, John

His feet on top of water, blessed Jesus within reach


Water was more than his livelihood, isn't it that which we all fear?

Death, sickness, failure----all of these idols, which we happen to hold dear


Every day I walk with You, I am reminded of the sword, to be put back in its sheath, away.

For dear Peter had no idea, that in his future, he would hold the Kingdom of Heaven's Keys one day..........


based on John 18:10-11 and Hebrews 2:10
