John 21:21-22
Peter, seeing him, said to Jesus, “But Lord, what about this man?”
Jesus said to him, “If I will that he remain till I come, what is that to you? You follow Me.”
The risen Lord Yshua had just restored Peter and assigned him to "feed His sheep". Then Peter was concerned what would happen to another disciple. Sometimes we too may be concerned about the spiritual assignment that others have. Sometimes it may be due to unconscious envy or sometimes it is just curiosity and meddling in places that we should not have. God has assignments and plans which are different for everyone. It is enough to listen, obey and serve God the way that He intended, without wasting our thoughts on others unless God wants us to intervene.
