Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:2

The disciples of Jesus were at sea, when He came walking on water. Fear got a hold of them as Jesus drew closer. Our sweet Saviour told them not to be afraid. Peter asked Jesus to bid him to come. As Peter stepped out from the boat, he began to walk on water. His focus and attention were on Jesus; he could do the supernatural, as long as his gaze was on Jesus.

But, when Peter considered the storm and how strong it was, he began to sink. He took his attention off Jesus and His enabling grace. His focus shifted to the challenges that were around.

Note that the wind had always been boisterous, before He told Jesus to tell him to come. But as long as Peter kept gazing on the Master, he did just fine, even in the midst of the storm.

What storm are you going through friend? You have to keep your eyes on Jesus, not on the situation; your answer is in Jesus.

Prayer: My answer is in You Lord. My vision is filled with only You and the righteousness You’ve made me.
