Grace for your spirit. February 6, 2012

Grace for your spirit
Peter said to Him, "Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water. And He said, "Come!"And Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came toward Jesus. Matthew 14:28-29

The apostles were out in a boat on the Sea of Galilee in the middle of the night. When Jesus came walking on the water, their first response was fear. This was another chance for the apostles to stand up and be counted. Would they be water walkers or boat talkers?. I guess any of them could have come out on the water that day, but only Peter made the walk. When we are challenged to stretch our faith, will we be step out in trust or talk about the people who do? We usually won't learn much always staying our comfort zone. When the time comes that we can step out of that zone keeping our eyes on Jesus, we come to a new level of trust. We aren't able to paddle our way to the promised land, we need to walk with Jesus

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
