Jumping Out of the Boat Faith

“Bid me to come to thee.” I prayed as Peter did.
For to my Lord and Savior I wanted to go,
Disregarding the crashing waves below.
With eyes on Him I made my way
The wonder of serving my Savior made my day
Until my eyes I took off of Him,
And I began to sink; I could not swim.
Lord, I want not only that jumping out of the boat faith,
That surge of joy that responds before the task at hand
Is seen for all the difficulty that it will hold
But also, Lord, I want that walking on the water faith
The faith that keeps my eyes on you and keeps me bold.
I want to walk all the way to You.
I know that if I start to sink and in the waves go down,
You will lift me up again and will not let me drown.

Great message and nice work. When it gets rough and the waves get choppy in the stormy seas of life, it's easy to forget to look to Jesus.

This I thoroughly enjoyed and understood. Didn't start with you're which suggests judgement.
I could feel the message and Love in this.


God Bless.

Excellent, a lot has been written about this and we all take our eyes off of the Lord in times of trouble. He has come through so many times, if only we would remember. God Bless, Mike.
