Walk By Faith: Embracing the Courage to Step Forward
In the extraordinary account of Jesus walking on water, we find not just a miracle, but a profound invitation to each of us to walk by faith. This story, a vivid illustration of faith and fear, challenges us to step out of our comfort zones and to trust in the unseen.
Just as Peter saw Jesus walking on the turbulent sea, we too are often called to step out into the unknown, to places that seem daunting or impossible. This scene is a powerful metaphor for life’s storms and our response to divine calls that seem to defy logic and reason.
The initial courage that Peter showed, stepping out of the boat, is a testament to the strength that faith can bring. He walked on water, not by his own power, but by keeping his eyes fixed on Jesus. This teaches us an essential truth: our ability to navigate life’s challenges is not so much about our strength, but about where we place our trust.
However, the moment Peter diverted his attention to the storm, he began to sink. This illustrates a critical aspect of our faith journey. Like Peter, we often start with confidence, but when faced with the realities of our circumstances, fear and doubt creep in. The lesson here is clear: our focus should remain steadfast on Christ, especially when the winds of uncertainty blow.
The beauty of this story lies not just in the miracle of walking on water, but in Jesus’ response to Peter's wavering faith. Jesus didn’t chastise him for trying; instead, He reached out to save him, reminding him of the need for unwavering faith. This is a comforting reminder that even when our faith falters, Christ is there to uphold us.
As we reflect on this biblical narrative, we are reminded that walking by faith requires courage to step out of our comfort zones. It’s about facing our fears, not denying them. Like flowers that bloom by turning towards the sun, we are called to turn towards the light of Christ, embracing our purpose and potential.
In your life, what does it mean to walk by faith? Are there areas where you feel called to step out of the boat and trust in God's guidance, even when the destination is not fully visible? Remember, walking by faith is not the absence of fear, but the decision to move forward despite the fear, knowing that with each step, Jesus is there to guide and support us.
Share your thoughts and experiences in the comments. How have you walked by faith in your life? Your story might be the encouragement someone needs to take their first step out of the boat. Let’s inspire each other with our journeys of faith, courage, and trust in the One who calls us to walk on water. 🤍✨

I keep my eyes fixed on Jesus because he is the only one who can give me the Peace that passes understanding.I have been battling cancer for many years now, after being cancer free for six years it came back.
Gods Grace is sufficient and I will not question my God and I will continue to see his hand in all of this. I can rejoice knowing that God is with me in the hard times and I believe he will use my cancer for His glory and my good. I am not afraid of tomorrow because every detail of my life is under his control. To Him be the Glory.
(Matthew 11:28) Come to me all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

Keeping my eyes lifted and locked on him is my focus this year. He has been leading me thru and around the mountain. We are moving up. Dominus Regit me.

Many of us express “taking a leap of faith”. Faith as a Christ Follower is so revitalizing, knowing that God loves us so much, during the step of faith, he will guide us. Even with the little hiccups. It’s important to stay steadfast, keep your eyes & heart upon him, as you continue to serve his “kingdom” as the beacon of light. If you are not Serving, you are Swerving. Plant that seed in your heart, continue to nurture it with your relationship with God, as we plant seeds in other people’s hearts/ lives as a vessel to spread “his” word by evangelizing and sharing the wondrous blessings. Be patient & remember it is always “in his timing” trust as you have faith….
