Matthew 14:29 NIV — Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus.
Today’s scripture is the basis of our blog. Years ago, Julie and I took a step out of our boats and walked on water. Each day, week, month, year, we have put one foot in front of the other and now it has been nearly 10 years. Some posts come naturally and easily, while others are a struggle and require true walking on water. Like Peter, if we take our eyes off of Jesus, we begin to sink. As we call out to our Savior, He comes to our rescue and walks alongside us to enable us to share His words of love, grace, mercy, and acceptance.
This week we will explain what water walking means to us and we pray you will examine what it means to you. Have you ever given it any thought when looking at your own life? How has God challenged you to be a water walker? How have you stepped out of your boat?
Let’s pray. Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for the opportunities You give me to be a water walker. Open my eyes to Your calling. Give me the strength and courage I need to step out of my boat of comfort and be a water walker. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
