But go, tell His disciples and Peter, He is going ahead of you to Galilee; there you will see Him, just as He told you. Mark 16:7
It had been a bad night for Peter. He denied Jesus three times and deserted Him in His time of need. Now Jesus is missing. Peter separated himself and wept bitterly. Perhaps he thought he had forfeited his apostleship, and God knew he would need a special invitation. Thankfully, he was listening for his name. Maybe we have felt like Peter now and then. In our sorrow, we need to remember God's grace, and be close enough to hear our name called. He is calling. Are we somewhere listening for our name?
