Faith Living

It took a great deal of faith for Peter
He had seen Jesus walking on water
And he called out if he could do same
Peter walked on water as though on land
 
The other disciples watched in amazement
They were staring at an impossible scene
Jesus who they had earlier perceived was a ghost
Now Peter; and both walking on water in a great storm
 
Some things are just indescribable….
But then; Peter considered the reality of an impossible
He noticed the boisterous wind on his face
He saw the high waves; he doubted
 
Soon the sea suddenly lost its firmness
He felt his feet quickly plunging into wetness
As he began drowning he cried out for help
Jesus grabbed his hand and they walked back to the boat
 
The exact moment he began to doubt
The exact moment he began to sink
We like Peter have a thing or two to learn
We have to live solidly everyday on faith
 
What is the reality of the situation saying?
What is the word of God Saying?
What are we going to believe in?
Faith implies believing Gods word nevertheless
 
Do not look at the obvious, look at the word
Facts will bring doubts, which will bring fear
Fear is fuelled by doubt, because you ignore faith
Failure results from doubts and fear. Failure is not my heritage
 
We have to keep our gaze continually on Jesus
We have to hear from him on all issues
We have to pitch our tent with him at all times
We won’t survive if we continually doubt...

Mathew 14:22-32
