What is that saying "Pride goeth before a fall".
We could only hope and pray that we would be strong enough, and we could only hope and pray that God would forgive us if we were not.
I do believe St. Peter was forgiven.
I don't disagree with you except your assignment of pride.
I'm not sure that I would have the strength under those circumstances.
My post was intended to prompt people to examine their faith and encourage the prayer you suggest.
