"Kept Coming Back"

"When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever: but thou, LORD, art most high for evermore." (Psalms 92:7-8)
Yes, I know, I forgot to make my point; or did I? The "fool" part of that message I know so well; it's like robbing God of the power in our own lives, when we pretend that He does not see us; and it's like a slap in the face to Jesus, when we do it when we think He is watching. But more than that, what does that count for our respect of the Holy Spirit that dwells within us? Jesus said, "Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commended you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen." (Matthew 28:20) Having been stricken with a cold, I laid back down this morning in my bed and started to pray. Usually whenever that happens I fall back to sleep, except my nose is so clogged up, sleep did not happen. But I was able to catch a dream or a vision, which was Jesus asking Peter, "Simon, son of Jonas, lovest me more than these?" (John 21:15) We tend to think that Jesus was testing Peter's loyalty or his resolve after having let the Lord down the night of His crucifixion. I'm not even certain that Jesus was testing Peter's love for Himself; at least not in the way that we might think. In the vision that I saw, Jesus was looking past Peter; His gaze was directly into Peter's eyes, but His focus was on a crowd of people who looked confused and shameful; kind of like that woman who brought to Jesus after having been caught in the act of adultery. Peter saw the reflection of the crowd in Jesus' eyes, and he turned to acknowledge what "These" could have been. Instantly, his mind was drawn to that night, the shame that he felt, and the stare Jesus had given from across the courtyard. When he turned back around, Jesus had that stare again in His eyes; but this time, since Jesus was right there in front of him, the stare was nothing close to judgment; it wasn't even a stare of discouragement. It was a stare of unconditional love! Peter would get it later on, but Jesus was making Peter understand who he was in the ministry that was set before him; but more than that, Jesus was letting him know who are His followers. Did Jesus mean for Peter to literally feed them food? No. Was Jesus even referring to the word of God? In a way, yes; but the real feeding Jesus spoke about was encouragement; to encourage those who might feel ashamed in the ministry that was ahead. Those who too might deny Jesus; those who might not feel worthy enough to call upon the Lord; those who might have even have contributed to His crucifixion...
"You were cleansed from your sins when you obeyed the truth, so now you must show sincere love to each other as brothers and sisters. Love each other deeply with all of your heart. For you have been born again, but not to a life that will quickly end. Your new life will last forever because it comes from the eternal, living word of God. As the Scriptures say, "People are like grass; their beauty is like a flower in the field. The grass withers and the flower fades. But the word of the Lord remains forever." And that word is the Good News that was preached to you." (1 Peter 1:22-25) NLT
