Peter Walks on the Water — a 5-minute devotion for Nantou 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.
Parents in Nantou often ask what to do when siblings are years apart in age. Read Matthew 14:22-33 together, then split the question: ask the younger child what happened in the story, and ask the older one why "sinking is not the end of the story" is harder than it sounds.
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: on the way through Nantou tomorrow, one person says the first half of "Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him." and someone else finishes it. Three tries and it is memorised.
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?
