Sinking Feeling

In Matthew 15:22-33, Peter wasn't sure that it was Jesus, but he was sure that Jesus had the ability to walk on the water. Peter was convinced that Jesus could walk on water; however, he doubted that Jesus could reproduce this miracle in his own life. Peter's small faith in what Jesus had said was exposed by his great faith in his own enviroment of the wind and the waves. For Peter to look at the wind and the waves, he had to take his eyes of Jesus. When he took his eyes off Jesus, he sank. We too can live a victorious Christian life like Jesus if we'd only believe him and get our eyes off ourselves. (Matthew 19:26)
