Easter Approaches


Easter approaches.
We turn our thoughts to those events
That lead to the Resurrection.
How Judas betrayed You.
How Peter denied You.
One died by his own hand.
One died Your servant.
What was the difference?
Judas never knew forgiveness
Peter received your blessing.
Why?
Because Judas acted while Peter waited?
Is that the answer?
When the world around us is darkest,
Must we wait for your guidance
And not act on our own impulse?
Give me the strength to wait upon the Lord.
