When the disciples saw Him walking on the
sea, they were troubled, saying,"It is a ghost!"
And they cried out for fear. But immediately
Jesus spoke to them, saying, "Be of good
cheer! It is I; do not be afraid." 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!"
( Matthew 14:26,27,29 & 30 *NKJV )
Dear Addison,
Now Peter began to sink because he took his eyes
off of Jesus, and focused on the wind & waves all around him. This
was because his faith faltered. So what did Peter do but
reach out to Jesus who was the only one that could save
him! You see Peter forgot to; Walk by faith, not by sight.
( 2 CORINTHIANS 5:7 )
Now we may not be walking on water, but when our
troubles surround us, if we focus on them instead of placing
our faith in Jesus, we will start to sink as well!
So Addison, when you are facing difficulties and
troubles surround you; keep your eyes on Jesus' power
rather then on your problems. Also when you are
apprehensive about your troubles, and if you doubt Christ's
presence or His great ability to help; remember that He is
the only one that can really help you as well!
Now tonight why not read this story. You will find it in The
Book of Matthew, Chapter 14, verses 22-33, for
wonderful reading it truly is!
Finally Addison, Watch, stand fast in the faith,
be brave, be strong. Let all that you do be
done with love. Amen.
( 1 Corinthians 16:13 )
All My Love & Prayers,
Pastor Allen
