matthew 14:22-32
immediately jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowd
after he had dismissed them, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray. later that night, he was there alone, and the boat was already a considerable distance from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it
shortly before dawn, jesus went out to them, walking on the lake. when the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. “it is a ghost,” they said, and cried out in fear
but jesus immediately said to them: “take courage! it is i. don’t be afraid.”
“lord, if it’s you,” peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.”
“come,” he said
then peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water, and came towards jesus. but when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, he cried out, “lord, save me!”
immediately jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “you of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?”
and when they climbed into the boat, the wind died down
how often do we, as followers of christ, doubt the power and goodness of god? we’ve seen what he can do and we know what we can do with him, yet we still doubt!
jesus will go to great extremes, like we saw by him walking on water to get out to the boat that was in the middle of the lake; just to get to us. and we must have faith that when he gets to us he’ll be faithful
when we trust we will walk on water, but when we doubt, we’re gonna end up shipwrecked
