Focus

But when he saw the strong wind & the waves, he was terrified & began to sink. "Save me, Lord!" he shouted. (Matt 14:30 NLT)

Peter walked on water.  Not many of us can say that.  Now some of you will point out that he started to sink but he walked farther on water than you & I probably ever have.  He didn't start sinking till he looked at the wind & the waves.  He probably felt them as well. His focus was taken off of Christ.  His focus was shifted to what was going on around him.  That often happens to us.  Somebody offends us, we become frustrated, debt,bad medical report, relationship problems & all of a sudden we feel the wind & the waves. But what got Peter out of the boat in the first place was he saw Christ. Now, He knew anything was possible because Christ was there.  Well, He's still there with us.  So whats impossible? Before you answer, don't think about your circumstances, just focus on Christ.  He has walking on water power for you. Focus on Christ & then answer what's impossible.  Don't let the wind & the waves hold you back.  Their just noise.
