Peter, a disciple of Jesus, and close friend, stood outside the courtyard gate And warmed himself by the fire. He is confronted with a question, "You knew him, didn't you?" - "No, not me"

Twice more he is asked. "Weren't you were one of his followers?"

Again Peter denied it. - Immediately a rooster crowed.

Take a moment to think about the denials, the reasoning or the excuses that are keeping you from the Way, the Truth and the Life. If you choose to, write it on a piece of paper and place it in the brazier fire.
