| Navigating Rough Waters |
Have we ever tried to picture Jesus walking on the water (Matthew 14:22-33)? What did it look like? The sea was rough and yet there is nothing that seems to indicate that his steps followed the motion of the waves. It would have been like trying to walk on a bucking bronco, yet his steps seem to have been sure and steady. The waves serve to indicate the hysteria of the disciples, yet Jesus’ steps serve to indicate the calmness of his spirit. Life bounces us around from time to time. It can appear as if we can find no sure footing. As we learn to trust Jesus in the storms of life, let us also learn not to hold back. Though others display a measure of hysteria and fear, let’s continue calmly forward when walking on rough waters .
