Look at Jesus

Matt. 14:22-33. Don't let situations in life overwhelm you, keep your eyes on Jesus. The devil would like to see your eyes off of Jesus so he can come in and remove your faith, by replacing it with fear.   Then the problem only looks more difficult than in the beginning. Just as when Peter came out of the ship, and walked on water towards Jesus. For a moment nothing looked impossible to him because he was walking in faith and looking straight at Jesus. v:30 "But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, 'Lord save me'." This is what happens when we take our eyes off of Jesus and put them on the storms that surround us in every day life. Situations will always arise and many of the trials will look and sound too big to get through. Do as  Peter! Step out of the ship into the storm in faith, but keep your eyes on Jesus. He is the only one that can calm the storm, and if you begin to sink cry out to Jesus. He will stretch out His Hand and save you. Jesus hears our prayers and knows our needs. Step out into this world of storms by Faith, with your whole being in Jesus Christ. Give Him Praise today.
