John 21:22 “…What is that to you? You must follow Me.”

For Simon Peter, he had come full circle from that first encounter with Jesus on the shores of the Sea of Galilee.  He and his brother, Andrew,  were fishing when this stranger approached them and declared, “Come, follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” (Matthew 4:19)  Now three years later, following Jesus’ death and resurrection and  Peter’s denial of Him…Peter has been restored and re-commissioned.  “Follow Me,”  is fellowship of faith and life with our Savior…it’s both inner fellowship of trust and confidence, and outer fellowship of becoming more like Him daily.  “Follow Me,” ultimately  means counting the cost and determining it’s all worth it.
