Jesus Walks on Water
Matthew 14: 25 - 31 (ERV)Then Jesus made the followers get into the boat. He told them to go to the other side of the lake. He said he would come later. He stayed there to tell everyone they could go home. After Jesus said goodbye to the people, he went up into the hills by himself to pray. It was late, and he was there alone. By this time the boat was already a long way from shore. Since the wind was blowing against it, the boat was having trouble because of the waves. Between three and six o’clock in the morning, Jesus’ followers were still in the boat. Jesus came to them. He was walking on the water. When they saw him walking on the water, it scared them. It’s a ghost! they said, screaming in fear. But Jesus quickly spoke to them. He said, Don’t worry! It’s me! Don’t be afraid. Peter said, Lord, if that is really you, tell me to come to you on the water.
Jesus said, Come, Peter. Then Peter left the boat and walked on the water to Jesus. But while Peter was walking on the water, he saw the wind and the waves. He was afraid and began sinking into the water. He shouted, Lord, save me! Then Jesus caught Peter with his hand. He said, Your faith is small. Why did you doubt? After Peter and Jesus were in the boat, the wind stopped. Then the followers in the boat worshiped Jesus and said, You really are the Son of God.
As Christians how easy is it to lose our faith in Jesus when we are being swamped by the tides of difficulties?Listen to Ron's Blog here:
