Tonight's family reading · Old Harbour
Peter Walks on the Water — a 5-minute devotion for Old Harbour families
Matthew 14:22-33 · Sinking is not the end of the story
In the dark before dawn, the disciples saw Jesus walking on the lake. Peter climbed out and walked too — until he looked at the wind. As he sank, he shouted for help, and immediately a hand caught him.
Use this one on the Old Harbour weekend, when there is room for a longer conversation. Read Matthew 14:22-33, talk through the question properly, then write the memory verse somewhere everyone will see it on Monday.
Memory verse
“Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him.”Matthew 14:31
Table question
What made you look at the wind this week instead of at Jesus?
30-second prayer
Jesus, when we sink, catch us. Thank you that you always reach out immediately. Amen.
Make it stick: ask the same question again at breakfast tomorrow. Answers change overnight, and hearing that change is how a child learns that sinking is not the end of the story is something you practise, not something you know.
Tomorrow: feeding the four thousand (Matthew 15:29-39). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.
On Mount Carmel, Elijah rebuilt an altar of twelve stones before calling on the Lord. What did the twelve stones represent?
