lurching forward – v2

we see Peter

lurching forward

too quick, not thinking

led by emotion

a man of action

by impulse, by anger

lurching forward

but building the church

Witnesses – v2

Witnesses to the truth of Christ’s love

His sacrifice on the cross

and the joining of His raising

Testifying to what we have seen

God’s promises fulfilled

the love of our Creator

His mercy, His grace

pouring down on us

Feeling the hands of the Potter

working us on the wheel

helping us to be worthy

a vessel for the King

Peter, the Rock,

with James, with John,

both not his brothers;

but all in the inner circle

walking with Christ

Peter, the Rock,

the stone, the foundation,

in the inner circle;

The first, the leader,

the start of the church

An Apostle – v4

An Apostle was called

he was commissioned by Jesus

he was sent forth by God

to build up the body;

He was sent to the world

to bring them to Christ

An Apostle was called

he was sent forth by God

to those who need Him

out in the world;

He was sent to the lost and the least

to the ends of the earth

An Apostle was called

he was sent forth by God

to win many to Jesus

to transform their lives;

He was to make Disciples, anointing,

baptizing them in Christ’s name

easily angered

flying off the handle

moving quickly

without thought

easily angered

quick to speak

to turn without thinking

letting his emotion

guide his steps

An Apostle – v2

An Apostle called

sent forth by God

commissioned by Jesus;

Sent to the world

to bring them to Christ

An Apostle called

sent forth by God

to those who need Him;

The lost and the least

out in the world

An Apostle called

sent forth by God

to win many to Jesus;

To make Disciples, anointed

baptizing them in His name
