A Converted Peter


(Written on November 5th, 2014.)

It is fascinating to me to consider the character of converted Apostle Peter vs. the old Apostle Peter. There came a point after his walk with the Savior where he truly turned to the light and was truly changed. Though he was worthy of apostleship and literally walked with the Lord on earth, he demonstrated true conversion in his dealings with his fellows only after the Savior had left. To me, his story is incredibly powerful and personal.

Qualities gained as a result of conversion:

Boldness
Devotion
Persistence
Gospel in heart
Fear of man washed away
Reverence
Plainness of speech
No more disposition to do evil

How can I become consistently converted to the gospel of Jesus Christ?
