Random Ramblings Of An Imperfect Girl, Loved by a Perfect God.

One drop of water may not seem like much until the rain begins. Thoughts and circumstances are just like drops of water. One thought may seem insignificant until it happens again and again, then you are left with a thought pattern. The same goes for circumstances. One thing may happen and you believe it is isolated until it happens again and again then you are left with a habit.

“But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary. And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea. And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear. But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid. And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water. And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus. But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me. And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt? And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased.”—Matthew 14:24-32 KJV.

It depends on how you look at the circumstance. Jesus wanted Peter to walk to him in full faith. When he focused on Jesus he walked on the water, when he focused on the storm he began to sink. You can either lament the thoughts or circumstances or you can focus on the Lord and dance in the rain.
