Stepping Out of the Boat

One of my favorite sermons is the one about Peter walking on water with Jesus. He stepped out of the boat even when he was doubtful. He took a leap of faith. He only bagan to sink when he took his eyes off of Jesus. I oftened think about this story & how it pertains to my life. We all need to take out of the boat when we feel that God is calling us to do something. We can not be ruled by fear. If we are doing what God wants us to do, then he is going to take care of everything. I have been thinking about this because I really feel like I am supposed to be stepping out of the boat and casting all my fears & doubts to him, keeping my eyes directly on God. He has never failed me. I am ready to get my feet wet.
