What I Wear-What about Peter?

28 “Lord, if it’s you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.”

29 “Come,” he said.

Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. 30 But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!”

31 Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?”

 Matthew 14:28-31

I've always wondered why we're so hard on Peter from the Bible. 
When listing the "greats," rarely is Peter ever mentioned. Yes, he denyed Jesus three times during Jesus' trial. Yes, he had a tongue that needed to be bridled. But what about the fact that Peter walked on water? I'm mean, for real! Last time I checked that takes a lot of faith. Peters problem came when he took his eyes off of Jesus. For a single moment, a short lived experience he was walking on water. 
But isn't that how it is? We're walking a tight rope of leaning too far to one side and falling off, or trusting in God and walking confidently on. 

So remember, even if you start to sink-you walked on water, if only for a moment. 

Do you think Peter should be in the "Bible hall of fame"?

  1. Yeah, I love Peter. The best part is after he sunk and Jesus caught him by the hand, he again walked on water. Love the outfit, you're such a beautiful lady.

  2. Good point! :) Peter went on to be a witness for the gospel!
    This is a cute, simple outfit. The green top looks neat with your eyes in that close-up photo!

  3. Ha, that is very true. No one I know (personally) has walked on water, so Peter's faith must've been incredible compared to ours. Good observation. I like to think that I am walking on water when I am on top of ice! Hehe.
