OVERCOMING CHAOS AND FEAR
Today’s gospel is abundant with meaning.
The winds and the waves represent challenges and chaos in life.
The 4th watch means it is the darkest time of the night.
Jesus walking on the waters shows God in full control over the chaos and darkness of life.
Peter walking on the water shows that faith in God allows us to have control over life’s challenges.
Peter, focusing on the waves, and eventually sinking shows that without faith, life’s chaos can easily engulf us.
Thought for the day:
Friend, hold on to God and you will never sink.
Dear Lord, may I always focus on you and not on life’s problems. Amen
