John 21 Thankfulness

Across America today is Thanksgiving and what an appropriate way to celebrate by reading the closing of this glorious gospel message. We know that from all 20 chapters previously we have walked with John as he shares his life with Jesus and the other disciples. It is fitting as well to see the love Jesus has for Peter and John. 

Jesus invited the disciples to breakfast and then after eating he took Peter and questioned his love. Three times, Jesus asked: do you love Me and each time, He gave Peter directions for his future. If Jesus were to ask you those same three questions how would you respond? 

Do you love Him more than “these?” Jesus then said: Feed My lambs. 

Then He asked Peter: Do you love ME? Then Jesus said: Shepherd my sheep. Again Jesus asked Peter: Do you love Me? Then Jesus said: Feed my sheep. 

How do you respond to those same three questions? Are you willing to feed the lambs, shepherd the sheep and feed His sheep? What are you busy doing today and every day?
