I have hidden Thy word in my heart.

John 20. “So Peter and the other disciple started for the tomb. Both were running, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. He bent over and looked in at the strips of linen lying there but did not go in. Then Simon Peter came along behind him and went straight into the tomb” (Verses 3-6). Peter has always been my favorite disciple I identity with his humanity. He had foot-in-mouth disease (which I too have). He was always the first one to try, if Jesus said come, Peter went. That’s why I love the picture these verses paint. The other disciple may have out-run Peter, but PETER still entered FIRST. The race isn’t about how fast you run…it’s about how well you finish. STAY THE COURSE.
