While the apostle Peter continues his ministry, God is using those moments to prepare him for something amazing. God has been preparing Peter for this pivotal life change for some time. Peter was hanging on to some unjustified judgments concerning the law and his own personal religious practices. Had he kept those, it would have hindered his ministry for the Lord and the gospel message that is available for all people!

This is what God will do in our lives. He will allow us to move forward in ministry, while at the same time continuing to shape us into the people He needs us to be. We serve a God that is Lord of all! Therefore we need to see everyone in the same way He does...without distinction, reservation, or preconceived judgement.
