LUKE 22:34

 Jesus answered, "I tell you, Peter, before the rooster crows today, you will deny three times that you know me." - Luke 22:34

This is another one.  How did You know?  And were there limitations?  Did you just know what the disciples were going to do?  Everyone?  And was it only the important stuff or could you see everything?  Like when You were praying, did The Father show you everything that was about to happen every day?  

How far in advance was it?  How could you have everything about everyone in your brain at one time?  I mean, we know our memories, but our brains would explode if we knew everyone's memories.  Or, was the future just stuff that pertained to You?  

I have so many questions, but I guess that's missing the point.  You knew that one of Your most devoted disciples was about the deny that he knew You.  Three times!  That must have hurt.  Being human, You had to feel disappointment.  But it always seems like You took it as Your job.  Your mission.  But, how did You balance it - Your role as Savior vs Your life as Jesus?

So many questions.

GENESIS 13-18, MATTHEW 5-6

​The winter Metra crowd is a lot different!  People plying music without headphones, talking loudly - it’s like the L! I was looking forward...
