Step out

Shortly before dawn Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake. When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost,” they said, and cried out in fear. But Jesus immediately said to them: “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.” “Lord, if it’s you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.” “Come,” he said. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!” Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?” (Matthew 14:25-31 NIV)

This verse stood out to me this morning. When Peter stepped out in faith at the word of God, impossible became possible. Just like Peter we sometimes refocus our attention on the "noise" and slowly slip under the waves. Even still, Jesus was there to catch him and remind him. 

You may not be able to walk on water but impossible will always be possible when your focus is on Jesus and his word. You might slip up but that hand will always be there to catch. 

Step out in faith.
