Chapter 14 Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowd. After he had dismissed them, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone, but the boat was already a considerable distance from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it. During the fourth watch of the night Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake. When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost,” they said, and cried out in fear. But Jesus immediately said to them: “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.” “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?”

And when they climbed into the boat, the wind died down. THEN THOSE WHO WERE IN THE BOAT WORSHIPED HIM, SAYING, “TRULY YOU ARE THE SON OF GOD.” When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret. And when the men of that place recognized Jesus, they sent word to all the surrounding country. People brought all their sick to him and begged him to let the sick just touch the edge of his cloak, and ALL WHO TOUCHED HIM WERE HEALED.

Peter’s walk on the water is a really a parable of how Christians are a lot of times.
At first they are gung-ho and very full of the faith and spirit, then as time goes by, they are buffeted by the cares and turmoil of this world, their faith falters and they begin to sink back into their old ways.........................

Well said, Red. Thank you, sir.
But you stopped short, didn’t you? Do you want to finish it, or shall I?

A wonderful #1 by Brent Borup, another Christian artist from Idaho.
Stunning stained glass windows!
Rane, Weistling, Brion, beautiful.
Finally, # 39 by the Korean artist Yongsung Kim. Symbolic of Christ being always there to save us from spiritual death.
As the artist described, at age 20 he had a dream with God asking him what he was going to do with the gift he had given him. From then on, he felt compelled to paint images of Christ. Much feelings and emotions in his work.

So many excellent paintings this morning, Dan. It’s hard to find a favorite. But if I must, I’d say I liked #39 -
YONGSUNG KIM - “The Hand of God”
Jesus had a smile on His face as He rescued His friend, the impetuous Peter.
It reminded me of when my oldest son at age 3 ran full speed towards the deep end of the resort swimming pool, jumped in, then realized he didn’t know how to swim.
The lifeguard stood there a moment before rescuing him and said, “I’m going to let him think about his actions firs”.

I am with both of you in my admiration of Kim’s masterpiece. It is so imaginative! A Peter’s eye-view from under the water....One of my three favorite paintings.

Docent etabeta, thank you again, as you lead us thru the gallery. Didn’t know where Borup is from (bet he has a great story), and Kim also; he has great talent indeed.

Was mine too. Quite a unique viewpoint.
I imagine Peter’s friends in the boat all chanting “look at Pete go. Woot woot woot!” Before he sunk. Musta been astonishing for them to see him step out of the boat and walk on water too.
