Bible Verse of The Day – 4-4-12

(Mat 14:29-31 NKJV)  So He said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. {30} But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!” {31} And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?”

Peter was doing pretty good until he looked around, giving attention to his circumstance rather than what He was asked to do. He wasn’t afraid until he looked around.

Jesus said “Come”. If Peter stayed focused on what Jesus told Him to do he would have made it to Him. Instead, Peter look around and it caused fear, and fear caused him to doubt.

I think sometimes we forget who our Papa is and the fact that if He tells us to do something, He will prepare us and give us what we need to do it. Our focus needs to be on Him and the things He asks of us to do.

Let’s get out of the boat and walk on water today!!
