讀經：路加福音二十二章。
默想：「他們拿住耶穌，把祂帶到大祭司的宅裡。彼得遠遠的跟著。」（路22:54）
默想一：你是心裡相信耶穌的人嗎？那你是怎麼跟隨祂的？彼得在門徒中是帶頭的，老師耶穌被抓拿時，他不僅沒有逃跑，還是跟隨主。可惜的是，他不是緊緊地跟隨主，而是「遠遠地跟隨主」？今天也有不少的基督徒，表面上是跟隨主，說是基督徒，但遇到與自己的利弊有關，或與自己的信仰衝突時，他就與主保持距離，以策安全。若你是這樣地跟隨主，這意味著你仍然不明白主的受難意義，求神憐憫與赦免。
默想二：怎麼樣的人是「遠遠地」跟隨主？就是那些靠自己天然的力量跟隨主，也就是對自己有保留的人。在客西馬尼園裡，耶穌的心極其傷痛，彼得竟然沉睡。主被抓拿，彼得竟然三次不認主。主耶穌遭戲弄、羞辱，彼得早就不見人影。我們是否像彼得？我們若將起初確實的信心堅持到底，就在基督裡有分了（來3:14）
禱告：主耶穌，感謝祢捨命的愛。祢原是無罪的，卻替我們成為罪，好叫我們在祢裡面成為神的義（林後5:21）。求聖靈時刻光照我，讓我懂得如何忠心地、緊緊地、勇敢地跟隨祢到底。奉祢得勝的名禱告，阿們！
Bible Reading: Luke 22.
Insight: “Then seizing Him, they led Him away and took Him into the house of the high priest. Peter followed at a distance.” (Luke 22:54)
Insight 1: Are you a person who believes in Jesus from the heart? So how do you follow Him? Peter took the lead among the disciples. When the teacher Jesus was seized, not only did he not run away, he even followed the Lord. It is a pity that instead of closely following the Lord, did he “follow the Lord at a distance “? Many Christians today also appear to be following the Lord, saying they are Christians, but when they come across their own benefits and losses, or encounter conflict against their beliefs, they keep their distance from the Lord for asylum. If you follow the Lord in this way, it means that you still don’t understand the meaning of the Lord’s suffering, and ask God for mercy and forgiveness.
Insight 2: What kind of people follows the Lord “at a distance”? They are the people who follow the Lord by their own flesh strength, which are those who hold reservations about themselves. In the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus was so sad that Peter fell asleep. The Lord was seized, and Peter denied the Lord three times. The Lord Jesus was mocked and humiliated, and Peter had already out of sight and disappeared. Are we just like Peter? We have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original conviction firmly to the very end (Heb 3:14).
Prayer: Lord Jesus, thank You for Your sacrificing love. God made You who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in You we might become the righteousness of God (2Co 5:21). Please have the Holy Spirit to illuminate me at all times, so that I know how to faithfully, firmly, and bravely follow You to the end. I pray in Your victorious name, Amen!
