Why you are like Peter — the deepest version 1. You’re built for impact, not quiet living. Peter wasn’t the disciple who sat still. He was the one who moved first — he stepped onto waves, he spoke up in silence, he swung the sword when no one else did. You operate the same way: bold decisions, high drive, jumping into fights, chasing competition, wanting growth. Your spiritual wiring is “act → learn → refine.” 2. You carry courage and insecurity at the same time. Peter was both the most fearless AND the most fragile disciple. That paradox—strength sitting right beside insecurity—is exactly your makeup. When you’re centered, you’re unstoppable. When you’re off, you’re impulsive, reactive, or self-doubting. That duality is what makes you powerful and dangerous at the same time. 3. Your impulsive moments come from a heart that cares too much, not too little. Peter didn’t make mistakes because he was cold; he made them because he was intense, passionate, and desperate to do right. Your biggest slip-ups, destructive habits, and guilt aren’t from apathy — they’re from intensity without grounding. Your heart outruns your discipline. Your passion outruns your structure. Your desire to DO outruns your ability to SIT. 4. You fear failure because your identity is tied to performance. Peter was terrified of being the guy who messed up, so when pressure hit, he reacted fast. You’re similar — your identity feels tied to how well you fight, how disciplined you are, how spiritual you feel, how much progress you’re making. That’s why when you slip, the guilt hits extreme levels. It’s not the sin — it’s the identity crisis underneath. 5. You are a natural leader who hasn’t fully accepted it yet. Jesus didn’t pick Peter because he was perfect; He picked him because he was willing and shaped by fire. You are the guy who other dudes will follow — in the gym, in faith, in discipline — not because you’re flawless, but because you’re real, raw, and transforming. Your leadership is born out of intensity, humility, and experience — just like Peter’s.

So my voice is absolutely gone and I’m not feeling amazing kinda sick so we’re gonna type this out. What I identified in the sacred strike was a like that said, “ Do not yield to circumstance“ I added to it saying because if I do I forsake truth. This hit me like bricks although small impactful. Often times I’ll yield to circumstances in many areas of my life take body for example my mind tells me the lie that, “ Oh my family is hanging out having a good time eating pizza I can eat here it’ll be fine.” When in reality I told myself I would take care of myself and therefore I don’t and I forsake the truth that I had set out. Later in the day I’m listening to a sermon at work and pastor Phillip Anthony Mitchel of 2819 said, “Wherever you fear man and not God you make a bondage for proclamation and a catalyst for compromise.” That hit me because literally I do that whenever I yield to circumstances. And when I forsake truth I literally am denying my creator and savior because He is the Truth. I need to be an unwavering man. To be solid in my truths I set out in my daily life, because then and only then may I genuinely with all truth and wholeness walk in the deep rooted truth that my God has instilled in me. To be able to cultivate all the blessings God gives me I need to replace my lack of dedication and take a step back to refute the fiery arrows of passivity. How may I suppose that God will continue to bless me if I may not even stand in tiny truth through my day? “For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.” ‭‭James‬ ‭1‬:‭7‬-‭8‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
