Peter, why did you doubt?

 

As long as Peter was walking toward Jesus, he achieved the impossible: getting the better of the Law of Physics by the power of faith, and walking on water. Perhaps it was a touch of hubris that made him turn around to look down at the other disciples in the boat; in that act he couldn’t help noticing the boisterous winds and billowing waves. He was terrified.

Once he took his eyes off Jesus, Peter succumbed to all the natural forces at work and shouted,”save me,Lord”.

Where are you looking?
