This illustrates the story of Jesus and Peter walking on the water. Jesus had to rescue Peter when he was sinking as he took his eyes off Jesus. The doubts and fear crept into Peter’s mind and his faith became weak. The darkness of doubt was trying to kill him, but Jesus reaches out His hand and rescued Peter when he needed it the most.
Matthew 14: 27-33 ... But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid. And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water. And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus. But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me. And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt? And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased. Then they that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God. ❤
