Peter Walks On Water

At some time in our lives we are all going to sink at one time or another. We’re all going to have times when our faith is so strong we’ll feel like we can do anything that God asks of us. We will also have times when our faith is very, very small. Yet, we need to keep in our minds that wonderful scene where Jesus reaches out his hand to Peter. He doesn’t let him go, he doesn’t punish him for his sudden renewed fear or his doubt. No, he pulls him out of the waves. Leads him to the safety of the boat and the care of his friends. And the waves and the wind die down.

Fear is transformed into awe; terror is transformed into belief, and the disciples begin to praise the one who has saved them. When you feel that you too are sinking in the storms of life call out to Jesus to save you and you will find that he will reach out to you and take hold of you and walk you to safety.
