Passage: Matthew 14:22-33
It’s hard to imagine what was going through Simon Peter’s mind when he looked out across the bow of the boat, saw Jesus walking on water, and then decided to utter the words: “Lord, if it is you, tell me to come to you on the water.” It was a statement of audacity as much as it was a statement of faith. And yet, because of that one brazen request, Peter became the only other human to ever walk across the waves. We’ll look at what it takes to have the kind of faith that can walk on water.
