Grace for your spirit August 18, 2013

Grace for your spirit
But seeing the wind, he became frightened, and beginning to sink, he cried out, "Lord save me!"  Immediately, Jesus stretched out His hand and took hold of him and said to him, "You of little faith, why did you doubt?"  Matthew 14:30-31

Peter had found his way walking on the water with his eyes on Jesus. Taking his eyes of Jesus and on to the wind and waves, he quickly lost his way.  When Jesus asked him about his doubt, He was literally asking him how he lost his way.  When Peter lost his faith, he immediately lost his way and sank.  In our Christians walk, we need to keep our eyes on Jesus and off our circumstances.  Our surroundings will bring us doubt, will affect our faith, we will lose our way, and we will sink too.  Let's stay afloat with our eyes fixed on Jesus.  He is the way, truth, and life
