Fixing Our Eyes On Jesus
Picture this. You are out on a boat late at night. The winds are whipping around you, the boat is rocking and you don’t feel safe. Then, you see a figure walking on the water, looking like a ghost. How would you react?
Peter called out to Jesus and said, “Lord, if it is you, tell me to come to you on the water.” That’s bold! And when Jesus told him to come, he stepped out onto the water into the miraculous.
But here’s the lesson for any of us that are healing or in a turbulent part of life; Peter walked on water when he fixed his eyes on Jesus. When he looked at his circumstances and saw the strong winds, he lost faith and began to sink. And who was there to catch him but Jesus?
If we focus on our illness, pain, or bad diagnosis and not the all-powerful Great Physician, our emotions and outlook will sink. Let’s fix our eyes on Jesus who is there no matter how scary your situation.
Questions:
1. Why do you think Jesus chose to meet the disciples in this fashion?
2. As you or a loved one is battling an illness, do you naturally focus on your circumstances or God who can change them?
3. What practical ways can you begin to fix your eyes on Jesus daily?
