never...HA!

Chapel today was really, Eye-opening. Dr. Coggins was our speaker, which quick fact about him, He attended BCF back in the day at the same time that Paster Bill and Ms Cindy were here. and Clint, Jennifer and Nathan, he worked here when yall were here...not sure if you remember him or not.
but, Bunny Trail asside, his message was from Luke 22: 31-34, 54-62.
i could go off on so many tangents from all that he spoke about, but to save you time, i will stick with just One of them.
Jesus had just told Peter that he was going to deny Him 3 times before the rooster crowed. Peter was like "No way thats happening!". but i mean, Peter, come on, the son of GOD just told you thats what would happen so DUH of course that what happened!
and Coggins pointed this out. He said, "Never say that you will never do something, because you will always end up doing the exact thing you said you would never do." which is exactly what happened to Peter! and you can say "well that wont happen to me, i have my Guard up, im strong enough!" HOLD UP! STOP and realize that Peter said the same thing. thats crazy! It's so true, i have seen it happen in my own life. So many times i have said, "i will never (fill in the blank)" and then have actually end up doing the exact thing i had claimed i would not ever do. even crazier, i would do it within the same day or week of claiming to never do it.
Moral of the story is....
so "never" is basically just bologna.
