Walk on Water

Since the first time I heard the Britt Nicole song "Walk on Water", I felt like I could identify with it.   Most of us, like Peter, have probably, at one time or another, been in situations we felt were scary and impossible.  The song does a good job of bringing to life the story recorded in Matthew 14:
"'Lord, if it's you,' Peter replied, 'tell me to come to you on the water.'  'Come,' He said.  Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, "Lord, save me!'  Immediately Jesus reached out His hand and caught him. "You of little faith," He said, 'why did you doubt?'"  (Matthew 14:28-31)

I just hope that whenever Christ has called me to step out in faith; and I look around at the real challenges I face, I will not lose faith and begin to sink; but rather that I would continue to walk, keeping my eyes on HIM.

What great lyrics:


You look around
It's staring back at you
Another wave of doubt
Will it pull you under
You wonder

What if I'm overtaken
What if I never make it
What if no one's there?
Will you hear my prayer?

When you take that first step
Into the unknown
You know that he won't let you go

Chorus:

So what are you waiting for?
What do you have to lose?
Your insecurities try to hold to you

You know you're made for more
So don't be afraid to move
Your faith is all
It takes and you can
Walk on the water too

Verse 2:
So get out
And let
Your fear fall to the ground
No time to waste
Don't wait
Don't you turn around and miss out
Everything you were made for
I know you're not sure
So you play it safe
Try to run away

If you take that first step
Into the unknown
He won't let you go

(chorus)

Bridge:
(step out)
Even when a storm hits
(step out)
Even when you're broken
(step out)
Even when your heart is telling you telling you to give up
(step out)
When your hope is stolen
(step out)
You can't see where you're going
You don't have to be afraid

So what are you waiting,
What are you waiting for?

So what are you waiting for?
What do you have to lose?
Your insecurities try to hold to you

You know you're made for more
So don't be afraid to move
Your faith is all
It takes and you can
Walk on the water...
Walk on the water too
