Faith to Walk on Water

Matthew 14:28-31 
28 And Peter answered Him and said, “Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.”  29 So He said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. 30 But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!”  31 And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?”

Do we have faith as Peter, jumping in to follow Jesus wherever He is and goes, only to immediately doubt and falter?  Or do we learn from those examples and encouraging promises that we can trust Him fully, and can follow in situations that seem impossible?  We can choose to doubt or trust as we follow.
