jesus and life jackets

so...

today i was at vbs... watchin little children.
(i'm in charge of the kindergardeners through 2nd grade)

today the lesson was about how jesus and peter walked on water

the conversation went like this:

teacher: why did peter start to sink? what didn't he have?

(correct answer: faith)

kid named logan's answer: a life jacket



we all laughed a little and told him the answer was faith, but it got me thinking...
a lot of people try to find life jackets when they're sinking. they grab onto anything they can to save themselves. it's hard to remember in a storm that we don't need lifejackets. we may be scared to death as the waves toss around us, but all we have to do is keep our eyes on jesus.
