English Standard Version
Have you ever had a moment in your life that you wished you could have a do-over? Maybe you'd say something different, or do something different. You look back on that moment with regret, but you don't have a second chance.
Peter gets a second chance to not deny even knowing Jesus Christ. If you remember, he utterly failed the first time. I bet he's been kicking himself ever since, wishing he had a do-over.
Well, he gets a second chance!
And he totally fails again. Completely misses his opportunity and once again denies knowing Jesus Christ.
And a second time, there is grace for his failure, and he is still one of the key disciples after the resurrection.
So friends, there is grace for you, too, even when you get it completely wrong, even if it isn't the first time you've gotten it wrong!
