Peter Walks on the Water — a 5-minute devotion for New York City, NY 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 New York City, NY 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: 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.

Question 1 of 33 left · ~30s
