How often are we like Peter? As I went to my
New Testament class today, this was one thought that really impressed
me about the Savior's Apostle Peter. How often do I turn from the Savior
when he attempts to clean the blackest part of me?
Why do I turn?
Is it because He
is so clean and so pure that I feel my dark sins are past His help, in that He
will not clean them because I have gone too far?
Is it because I
don't feel I need Him to clean them, there is a appointed time, He
can't clean them now, it will done later at night when I’m home, but not now.
Is it because I
feel embarrassed for Him to help me I such a way?
Is it because I’m
comfortable right now, I don't feel that I need to be washed?
In all these cases
I think I have been there at one time or another, I think all of has. I
love this thought that one has to let the Savior do the dirty work. Let
Him! We all are unclean and are in need of his help and I think like
Peter when we get a true glimpse of what He will and is going to do for us,
we'd shout also...wash my head and body also. O how sweet and glorious
the Gospel is, the more I learn about the Savior the more I love Him, the more I
trust Him.
