John 21:7-14 Willingness to Serve
Three times Jesus asked Peter if he loved him. Peter had repented, and here Jesus was asking him to commit his life. Peter’s life changed when he finally realized who Jesus was. His occupation changed from fisherman to evangelist; his identity changed from impetuous to “rock”; and his relationship to Jesus changed—he was forgiven, and he finally understood the significance of Jesus’ words about his death and resurrection.
Lesson: It is one thing to say you love Jesus, but the real test is willingness to serve him.
