JESUS WALKS ON WATER

One evening, Jesus was praying on a hill and His disciples were in a boat far out in the lake, tossed about by the waves, because the wind was blowing against it.
 

As they were struggling in the boat, Jesus came to the disciples, walking on the water.  When they saw Him walking on the water, they were terrified.  Just like the way you children cry out, when you are scared.  The disciples screamed with great fear, saying - It's a "ghost!"

Jesus at once spoke to them saying - "Take Courage! It is I.  Don't be afraid."

Immediately, Peter one of His disciples replied - "Lord if it is really you, order me to walk on the water to you.  "Come," answered Jesus.  So, Peter got out of the boat and started walking on the water to Jesus.  As long as, his eyes were fixed on Jesus, he did not sink and the angry waves did not overcome him.  But, the moment Peter noticed the strong wind and the angry waves; he became afraid and began to sink down in the water crying out - "Save me, Lord!"

At once, Jesus reached out His hand and helped him and said, - "How little faith you have! Why did you doubt?". Afterwards both Peter and Jesus walked back to the boat and the boat sailed to the shore.

This miracle made the disciples realise that Jesus is really all-powerful.  At this moment may be, you are filled with exam fear or you are scared of everyone and everything in life.  But, even in this scary condition, if you look up to Jesus , He will help you and give you success, as Jesus loves each one of you, a lot.
