Do you ever feel like this?


Take a look at this picture. Do you ever feel like Peter? Do you find yourself falling down into the sea of life, unable to pull yourself up? Here Christ offers a helping hand to a man who is sinking. He will do the same for you.

Our walk of faith is often difficult. God knows that. Afterall, Christ went through temptation and hardship while living on earth. He knows what we are going through because He expereienced it first-hand.

The hand of Christ is outstretched waiting for you to grab hold. He desires you to rely on Him. He is our creator and sustainer. God knows that life gets you down, but He is there with you guiding your steps. When we feel like we're sinking, Christ holds out His hand to save you. All you have to do is grab it and never let go.

I find the idea that God is always there comforting. It is just disappointing how many time we forget about God in the times of joy, but we always seem to remember him when we are going through our times of trials. It still amazes me how easy it is to reach out for Gods love. All you have to do is believe that Christ died for us on the cross and the we get to spend an eternity with our Heavenly Father. Child-like faith is so simple, but it is one of the hardest things to get back once we are no longer children.
