“耶稣说，你来罢。彼得就从船上下去，在水面上走，要到耶稣那里去；只因见风甚大，就害怕；将要沉下去，便喊着说，主啊，救我。”（太14章29-30节）
读者，你看见吗？彼得的小信是一个极大的障碍：他既然已经开步走了，波浪的大小，无须他去操心；他所当注意的，乃是从主所在的地方射过来的那道光彩。光彩以外，纵有十个埃及，彼得也无须去注意。
读者，当主在水面上叫你：“来罢”的时候，欢欢喜喜地向前走去！不要转过你的眼去注视别的东西。
因为你不能因着测度波浪得到胜利；也不能因着测量风力得到坚固。越去注意危险，越会坠入危险；越是见难而止，越会遭遇苦难。读者，你应当举起你的两眼来专心仰望主，大着胆向前走去！
So he said, “Come.” Peter got out of the boat, walked on the water, and came toward Jesus. But when he saw the strong wind he became afraid. And starting to sink, he cried out, “Lord, save me!” (Matt 14:29-30)
Peter had a little faith in the midst of his doubts, says Bunyan; and so with crying and coming he was brought to Christ.
But here you see that sight was a hindrance; the waves were none of his business when once he had set out; all Peter had any concern with, was the pathway of light that came gleaming across the darkness from where Christ stood. If it was tenfold Egypt beyond that, Peter had no call to look and see.
When the Lord shall call to you over the waters, “Come,” step gladly forth. Look not for a moment away from Him.
Not by measuring the waves can you prevail; not by gauging the wind will you grow strong; to scan the danger may be to fall before it; to pause at the difficulties, is to have them break above your head. Lift up your eyes unto the hills, and go forward—there is no other way.
“Dost thou fear to launch away?
Faith lets go to swim!
Never will He let thee go;
’Tis by trusting thou shalt know
Fellowship with Him."
