Lord, Peter walked on water to You because he believed, but when he took his eyes off of You and paid attention to the wind and waves he began to sink. Give us faith to follow You even though it seems impossible in a world that tries to pull us from You every minute of the day. Help us to remain focused on You because we too can drown if we let the winds of life cause us to be afraid. Help us Lord! Pull us out of the deep waters of fear, stretch out Your hands and catch us for we put our trust in You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
"And Peter answered Him and said 'Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.' So He said, 'Come.' And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. But when he saw that the wind was boisterous he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, 'Lord, save me!' And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, 'O you of little faith, why did you doubt'?"
Matthew 14:28-31 (NKJ)
