Pastor Tim Floyd shared the Gospel with us tonight. Tim read from Matthew Chapter 14 verses 22-30. This scripture covers the story of the disciples seeing Jesus in the midst of a storm. Jesus was walking on the water to their boat because he had sent them away earlier in the day. Peter asked the Lord, if it is really you, let me come to you. Jesus told him to come on. Peter did great as long as he focused on Jesus but when he lost focus, he began to sink. Then he cried out for Jesus to help. What do you think Jesus did? He helped.

Even tho Peter made a LOT of mistakes God still used them for great things.With everything Peter had done, God allowed him to preach Pentecost and see thousands be saved. This shows you that no matter what we have done; Jesus is there for us and will use us every day if we will let him. The enemy will try to make us lose focus on Christ so that we make mistakes and fail. But God recognizes our fear and will calm it if we let him.

Tim reminded us we have all failed, took the wrong path, made bad decisions. And we will continue to make mistakes through our entire life. We must not let our past mistakes and failures determine our future. Also, that God loves us, cares for us and will meet our needs.
