    When we feel the storms of life, we need to remember this story of Peter stepping out of the boat and walking toward Jesus, and the leap of faith he took. If he could do it, so can we.

    Beginning To Sink

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 19, 2013
     | 7,264 views

    The story of Peter walking on the water and beginning to sink provides excellent lessons for us to prevent us from beginning to sink in the trouble waters of life.

    There are two sights in human life which fill the heart with profound sorrow. The first sight is that of a person who has sunk amid the troubled waters of life. It is the one whose once youthful face is no more because of rough, hard living. It is the person who had a good raising, who wore good ...read more

    Faith is a reductionism of the greatest kind. For in Jesus, the "extraordinary" is nothing more than the "ordinary" things in life PUT TOGETHER to achieve an "extraordinary" feat.

    Beloved, I would like to engage your hearts and minds for the next few minutes, from the subject, “Doing Something Extra With The Ordinary” Beloved, in his painting “Walking on the Water”, one can nearly hear the rhythmic splashing underneath. One can almost feel the ...read more

    A perspective on Matthew 14: 22-33. Like Peter, we are so often distracted by the voice and terrors of our own storm in life. At times we feel we are sinking, about to loose everything about us.
