John 20:6 | DiscipleDeck

Bible Commentary

John 20:6

Peter, bold and impulsive, went right in. Sometimes we need the person who will just go — who acts while others wonder.

Memory phrase: God uses the bold and the wondering.

Talk about it: Would you be more like John — pausing at the door — or more like Peter — going straight in? Which one do you think you are?

Prayer: Lord, make me bold enough to step in when You are calling me forward, and wise enough to wonder when I should.
