Daily Devo | Fear vs. Faith – A Question of Focus (New Testament in a Year, Matthew 14:22-26)
Description
After feeding the five thousand, Jesus sends the disciples ahead by boat while he finally finds time for solitude. Later in the night, Jesus comes to them walking on the water. Peter initially steps out in faith then begins to sink. Fear takes over when we focus on the storm but faith prevails when we fix our eyes on Jesus.

For Reflection:
- What “storms” in your life pull your focus away from Jesus?
- What do you learn about Peter, about Jesus, and about yourself when Peter begins to sink?
- Where might Jesus be inviting you to get out of the boat to walk in faith like Peter?
