28 “Lord, if it’s you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.”

29 “Come,” he said.

Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. 30 But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!”

31 Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,” he said,“why did you doubt?”

"Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase."

"If you can’t fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward."

Dr Martin Luther King

This week, as I prepared to teach second graders the story of Jesus walking on water, I realized how much I needed this story in my life and especially in my writing.

What if I change Jesus’ command ‘come’ to Peter to ‘write’ to me.

This one word command from Jesus holds all the confirmation and power I need.

I learn from Peter’s mistake to keep my eyes on Jesus.

And the great lesson, to put one foot in front of the other.

A song I found which spurred me forward in this thinking was Walking on Water by Elevation Rhythm.

Ms Blevins Walking on Water is my video answer to a challenge to this song. It turns out I have a creek in my yard,

Recommendation to consider the concept of walking on water - Elevation Church’s message, Walking on Water 101.
