Evening: Psalm 91, 92; Matthew 16:13-20
There is much that is edifying in Jesus’ stories and in those others tell about what he did and said. Today’s story, though, is about who Jesus is; that makes all the difference. It took several years for Jesus himself to come to grips with his own identity. But when his followers realized, 2000 years ago, that Jesus might be the one promised from of old to deliver his people from their troubles, there began a profound transformation in the world’s life. And his question to the disciples is still valid and important today: Who do you say Jesus is?
