Mat 14:31 And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?”
It was during the fourth watch of the night. The disciples were all alone in the boat. The wind was blowing against them and they were blown off the course towards the middle of the lake. Jesus came walking on water and the disciples were terrified. They thought they were seeing a ghost.
Jesus told them not to be afraid because it was him. Then Peter said ” If it is you…tell me to come to you on water”. Jesus said ” come”. At first , full of courage, Peter stepped into the water and walked towards Jesus. But when he looked at the wind and the waves ,he was afraid and started to sink.
But immediately Jesus stretched his hand and caught him and said to him , “oh you of little faith, why did you doubt?”
Why are you doubting? Whenever we take off our eyes from Jesus and start gazing at our troubles , we will “sink”. When troubles come upon us and we feel we are sinking, we can call out to Jesus and he will hold our hands and bail us out.
