Running to Jesus

In John 20 the disciples found out that Jesus had risen! How cool is that? You find out that someone who was dead is now alive especially someone you were bestfriends with and loved deeply. This is where we find Peter and John. Throughout scripture Peter was always the first to do things (walk on water, deny Christ, cut off ear, throw nets to other side, etc) but when he finds out Jesus is alive he was the slowest to getting to Jesus. How is that? John beat Peter. Based on what has taken place throughout scripture Peter should have beat John. Why? What was stopping Peter from beating John? Peter had not mended his relationship with Jesus. Peter knew that the last thing he had done was deny he ever knew Jesus. There was a wall between Peter and Jesus. Peter did not want to face Jesus so his running was hindered. Where are you hindered when you run to Jesus? What is holding you back? Are you even running to Jesus? Why or Why not? Deal with the sin in your life so you can run free. God is calling each of us to RUN to HIM!
