And when He had sent the multitudes away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. Now when evening came, He was alone there. But the boat was now in the middle of the sea, tossed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.
Now in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking on the sea. And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, “It is a ghost!” And they cried out for fear.
But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, “Be of good cheer! It is I; do not be afraid.”
And Peter answered Him and said, “Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.”
So He said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!”
And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased.
Then those who were in the boat came and worshiped Him, saying, “Truly You are the Son of God.”

Peter was a fisherman. he would Have known this sea. he would have known a bad storm from a good storm.
Peter goes from extremely scared to wanted to walk on water (that might a good thing for a fisherman).
so, peter gets out of the boat and it doesn't turn out the way he thinks it will.
sometimes we fail.... Just because we fail doesn't mean we shouldn’t try.
does anyone know how many disciples there where?
Good! how many disciples got out of the boat?

it may have not turned out the way he thought it would. but he is also the only disciples to know that even when you try and fail, Jesus is still their.

Jesus pulled peter back into safety and the storm faded.
there will be scary moments.
Jesus will be there in the scary moments.
