As Jesus asks Peter three times if he loves Him, the message should echo in our ears. God, of course, knew the answer but the question surely perplexed Peter.
Our actions dictate our love and in the Christian Life this is the absolute evidence of our love for The Christ. In a world that says just make a "decision", Jesus is saying if you love me you will show it.
It's not enough to just talk about it but we must walk it. Peter had failed many times but he continued to walk forward in loving Jesus. By the end of his life, his love for Jesus was clearly revealed. As Jim Elliot once said, "When it comes time to die, make sure that all you have to do is die."
