Teaching Jesus reaches out to steady Peter

Jesus can do far more than we imagine - and when we start to sink, He reaches out and catches us.

  • A boy gave his little lunch, and Jesus did something huge with it. What "little" thing could you give Jesus to use?
  • Peter started to sink when he looked at the waves instead of Jesus. What helps you keep your eyes on Jesus when you're scared?
  • The moment Peter cried "Lord, save me!" Jesus caught him. How does it feel to know Jesus is quick to catch you?
