What is trusting in God

 Matthew 14:22-33

Jesus Walks on the Water

²⁸ “Lord, if it’s you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.”

²⁹ “Come,” He said.

Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. ³⁰ But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!”

³¹ Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith, “he said, “Why did you doubt?”

1.       Who know, what was the peter background? Do you think he know how swim?  Do you think peter know how to driving/pedaling boat?

·         I think he knows everything as fisherman

·         He could swim for an hour and could rich Jesus or boat

·         He could save his life his own without any help

·         He could trust in his own abilities, experience and he could try

·          But still he called to Jesus to help him out????

Why??? He asks to Jesus and requests Jesus to save him??

·         Because there was someone who bigger than peter experience, bigger than peter abilities, Son of God! He is beyond his capacity, knowledge and experience!

2.       Trouble will not stay longer if you cry out to Jesus to help :

(1)    You may get in trouble, fall on temptation, but those thing will not bothering you any more, Jesus will take you away from trouble. Even you fail to trust him in second then realized and back to Him and trusting Him He will save you.

3.       God wants to trust in Him for everything even small or bigger near or far, within capacity beyond the capacity … for everything He wants to trust Him and have a faith on Him. He will save you.
