WALK BY FAITH - MONDAY

Verse.

27 But Jesus immediately said to them: ‘Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.’

28 ‘Lord, if it’s you,’ Peter replied, ‘tell me to come to you on the water.’

29 ‘Come,’ he said.

Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came towards Jesus. 30 But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, ‘Lord, save me!’

31 Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. ‘You of little faith,’ he said, ‘why did you doubt?’

32 And when they climbed into the boat, the wind died down. 33 Then those who were in the boat worshipped him, saying, ‘Truly you are the Son of God.’.

Matthew 14: 22-27 [New International Version]

Prayer:

Dear Jesus, Thank you for this demonstration of your authority over the laws of creation and for showing us that we too may act in similar ways in obedience to your command. Thank you for your willingness to respond to our doubts and to our challenges to prove yourself to us. Help us to see your hand at work and to have to overcome our fears that you might ask us to do something that is out of our comfort zone so that we can do the things that you have planned for us before the foundation of time. Amen
