Daily Devotion: A Tip About Being A Know-It-All
Bible Reading: Matthew 26:30-38
Key Verse: Verse 33 – “Peter answered and said unto him, Though all men shall be offended because of thee, yet will I never be offended.”
Key Words: will I never be offended
Have you ever said something that later you regretted saying? Don’t you know that’s how Peter felt?
Here is Peter talking to the Son of God telling Him what He will and will not do, as if Jesus didn’t know already what Peter was going to do. Peter had one of those “I know-it-all” moments and it came back to haunt him.
While she was enjoying a transatlantic ocean trip, Billie Burke, the famous actress, noticed that a gentleman at the next table was suffering from a bad cold. "Are you uncomfortable?" she asked sympathetically. The man nodded. "I'll tell you just what to do for it," she offered. "Go back to your stateroom and drink lots of orange juice. Take two aspirins. Cover yourself with all the blankets you can find. Sweat the cold out. I know just what I'm talking about. I'm Billie Burke from Hollywood." The man smiled warmly and introduced himself in return. "Thanks," he said, "I'm Dr. Mayo from the Mayo clinic."
