The depths of this unfolding drama takes a lifetime to plumb deep. All through the gamut of our experience as a believer, the running theme is in “following Jesus”. Jesus' reply to Peter in John 13:36-38 is astounding. He says “will you lay down your life for my sake?” Peter was using words that he did not understand, he had no clue of what he was really saying. He spoke of laying down his life for his Lord. But the Apostle Peter would later realize that He could only be able to follow because his Lord has laid down His own life for him.
