Significant Verse: 21:19 & 22
What does the verse say? Jesus predicted what kind of death Peter would experience to glorify God and then told Peter, "Follow me". When Peter asked about John's destiny, Jesus replied if He wanted John to remain until He returns, that's up to Him. Then Jesus repeated to Peter, "Follow me".
What is God saying to me? I want to know your will and follow you when it means seeing changed lives and new believers and powerful miracles. But a part of following you means obeying your will for my life even if it is unpleasant or difficult or painful. Following you means absolute surrender to your will, no matter what. Lord, I want to follow you in all things. Show me where I have not surrendered to your will. Give me strength as I seek to follow you.
