Think of the Apostle Peter. Jesus told Peter that he would deny Him three times. Peter’s response was he would not deny Jesus. Here’s the thing, Peter did deny Jesus three times and Jesus saw it.
Imagine that you were the Apostle Peter the leader of the Apostles and a member of the inner circle of the Son of God Jesus Christ and you deny him three times.
You would feel devastated, full of shame and guilt. You say, “I’m such a failure that God can never use you” but that isn’t true. God uses our failure,hardship and trials for His glory. He turns what was meant for harm and uses it to glorify His name. You say that you are a failure and yet God says because of the finished work of Christ you are victorious.
The Apostle Peter went on to be mightily used by God. You may be broken right now but in due season God will build you up and use you for His glory. Don’t run from Him run to Jesus. God uses ordinary people for His glory.
