Sunday, August 9, 2026:
Jesus said: “My people, after I fed the 5,000 people with the two fish and five barley loaves, I called My apostles to go in a boat. A storm came up and made it hard to row ashore. Then at night I appeared to My disciples as I was walking on the water. The apostles thought I was a ghost, until I called out to them and they recognized Me. St. Peter wanted to walk to Me on the water if it was truly Me coming to them. So I told him to come, and he walked on the water until fear came over him and he began to sink. St. Peter did take his first step in faith, but I had to save him from drowning. We got into the boat and I calmed the storm. The lesson is when you face difficult tasks, that you need to take the first step in faith, and let Me help you to finish your trial. Trust in Me to help you with all of life’s troubles.”
