Peter asked to step out on water to walk to Jesus. Surprisingly, Jesus said, “Come.” Matthew 14:28-29, “And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water. And he said, Come.” Unfortunately when Peter looked away he began to sink. Verse 30, “But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.” Have you ever wanted to be Peter long enough to walk on water. I thought, If only I could.
IF I COULD
If I could reach where Christ now stands
I’d touch His robe of royal strands
If I could go where Angels sing
I’d play for Him upon ten strings
If I could hear the voice that stilled
I’d thank Him for a life He filled
If I could walk atop the sea
I’d keep my eye on only Thee
If I could bow before His throne
I’d wash the feet of Him alone
If I could see Him face to face
I’d know the end of this long race
