WHY DO WE DOUBT?

Matthew 14:29-31  "So He said, 'Come.' And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, "Lord, save me!" And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, 'Oh you of little faith, why did you doubt?'" 
 
It seems reasonable that the disciples had a hard time with their faith. They were witnessing miracles for the first time, and prophecy was coming true right before their eyes. It was all so new and different from what they were used to.
 
But today we have the Word of God with us, taught to us, and preached to us. We have heard all things and know all things. So why do we doubt? 
 
I encourage you today to walk on that water with Jesus. To not be afraid of what He has for you. You have seen His hand, felt His love, and received His acceptance. Go forward in His name, and wait for a miracle to come your way!
