Narrative Lectionary -- New Testament Week Six -- Peter makes himself vulnerable

This is from Psalm 90 and Luke 5.
Emily Flemming and I are trying a little different approach. We are going to read the other's scripture before the sermon with a teaching moment.
This reflection is more from the Luke than the Psalm, but it gets to both. I have been talking a little about Emotional Intelligence (EQ) of Jesus and how he has done, and offer Peter up here as a good example of how he has made himself open to the idea of possible change, and from that, a new vocation.

This is actually NOT a Narrative Lectionary text. But it worked as if it were one.
Jeremiah 30: 18-22 meets Christ the King Sunday but before Thanksgiving.
I got the translation of potential from this site. I know beans if he is exactly right, but it sure worked.
Objective: Try and bring hope to those who feel hopeless, and do it in the context of Thanksgiving.
The 1943 example of Roosevelt and Congress was actually more of an economics argument than a theological one, but ... it worked. It is true that they had a conversation about Thanksgiving Day in 1943. I may have stretched it a little on the rest of it. Sue me.
