Scripture lesson: Matthew 16:13-17 Who is Jesus
Time to reflect: I am one of the worst about answering direct questions with lots of words and qualifications and nuances. Peter got it right: “you are the Messiah, Son of the living God.”
Moving through the day: Try making this affirmation to God in a prayer.
Peter's Confession of Christ
13When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, "Who do people say the Son of Man is?"
14They replied, "Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets."
15"But what about you?" he asked. "Who do you say I am?"
16Simon Peter answered, "You are the Christ,[a] the Son of the living God."
17Jesus replied, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in heaven.
