Aristotle believed there were 153 species of fish in his time

3. Receive what you need

Peter was hurt means to make sorrowful, to mourn

Breakdown before breakthrough

Mark 14: 70-72

A little later some of the other bystanders confronted Peter and said, “You must be one of them, because you are a Galilean.”

71 Peter swore, “A curse on me if I’m lying—I don’t know this man you’re talking about!”72 And immediately the rooster crowed the second time.

Curse = anathematize = to devote to destruction

Your past may remind you, but it doesn’t define you.
