Everything distracts me, and I can feel tossed about by the waves of this world and all its needs and concerns. Please still my heart in this moment so that I can hear you speak to me in this Gospel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Encountering Christ:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<li><strong>Jesus Calms the Water:<\/strong> Why do you suppose that Jesus walked on the sea? He did not have to go to his disciples at all; he could have spoken a word of peace from the shore, and the sea would have obeyed. Or he could have simply appeared in the boat. Jesus chose to walk on the water to demonstrate his power over the turbulent sea: \u201cThrough the sea was your way; your path, through the mighty waters, though your footsteps were unseen\u201d (Ps 77:20). I can ask myself what parts of my life are turbulent and characterized by conflict and disorder. Where do I feel powerless and \u201ctossed about by the waves\u201d? I can call out to Jesus and ask him to come to me in his power and calm the violent waters that sometimes rage in my life.\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Focused on Christ: <\/strong>Peter\u2019s faith was bold, but perhaps not fully developed. It was his idea to walk on the sea! He even succeeded while he focused on moving toward Jesus. However, when he looked away from Christ and at the situation around him instead, he became afraid. If we keep our eyes on Christ during the turbulent times in our lives, we will have no fear. For Jesus is love, and \u201cthere is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear\u2026\u201d (1 Jn 4:18).\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>\u201cLord, Save Me!\u201d:<\/strong> If we fall under the turbulent waters in our confusion or despair, we should call out to Christ to be our Savior as Peter did: \u201cLord, save me!\u201d Psalm 69 reads: \u201cSave me, God, for the waters have reached my neck\u201d (Ps 69:2). Instead, we can trust that Jesus is there with us in the midst of our trials and sufferings. Jesus is peace! When we are going through turbulent waters, we can ask Jesus to be with us and keep our hearts and minds calm amid the distress around us: \u201cThen the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus\u201d (Phil 4:7).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Conversing with Christ:<\/strong> Lord Jesus, how often I have been tossed about by the winds of life. How often the waves of fear and uncertainty have sent me crashing down. Please give me the grace to keep my eyes focused on you in these times. Help me to remember that you are the true source of my peace.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Resolution: <\/strong>Lord, today by your grace I will pray about which storm in my life needs Jesus\u2019 calming and powerful presence.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Carey Boyzuck is a wife, mother, freelance writer, and a lay member of Regnum Christi.
