Mark 14:52
It is so sad that all forsook Christ. Though John and Peter stayed close by, they are included in the number who ran initially. It is easy for us to say that we would not have run. But, it is easy to say we would not have sinned as Adam did too. And yet, we fail and miss the mark on a regular basis. Only the Lord can help us to have victory over the pattern of failure that sin brings into our lives.
Heavenly Father, how can we thank you enough for your mercy? Only by Christ may we break the chain of failure. Only by him can our lives be truly honoring to you. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise you, Amen.
