Duration: 365 days
Out of the Boat
Some people miss the full dimension of the story about Jesus and Peter walking on the water. Peter often gets criticized. People point to his moment of panic, shake their heads and speak disapprovingly about his lack of faith. But they overlook a crucial fact namely, that Peter got out of the boat!
He left his own comfort and safety to venture into the unknown. He put himself into a vulnerable position in an effort to get closer to Jesus. He made a mistake in letting the danger of his situation rattle him. But because he’d dared to do something almost unthinkable, he experienced the Lord’s grace in a way few others have. Are you ready to get out of the boat?
