In Matthew 26:41 Jesus tells Peter that his heart his willing but his flesh his weak. This has been the story of the life of Peter portrayed by Matthew. There is no questioning his desire to follow and serve Jesus. However‚ readers are often left to wonder if Peter was bipolar because with his acts of greatest came the many mishaps.
