S – But go, tell his disciples and Peter, ‘He is going ahead of you to Galilee; you will see him there just as he told you.’

Mark 16:7 CSB

O – Commentary:

The women were given a task. They were to go and tell Jesus’ disciples that they would be reunited with Him in Galilee. The words and Peter, unique to Mark, are significant since much of Mark’s material likely came from Peter. He was singled out not because of his preeminence among the disciples but because he was forgiven and still included in the Eleven despite his triple denial (cf. 14:66–72).

“Mark,” in The Bible Knowledge Commentary: An Exposition of the Scriptures

A – We have all done things we regret.  Peter, after boasting that he was ready to die with Christ, denied him three times.  Even he was forgiven of his sin.  Recognizing God will forgive anything when we ask him gives us a wonderful freedom.  We should not live without thinking of consequences.  We should live boldly with humility and faith knowing that we have God’s love even when we fall short.

R – Heavenly Father, you are perfect and holy.  Embolden us to live courageously and in faith.  As we make mistakes and sin, please forgive us.  As we mature, this gives us confidence that you are for us in all situations.
