Keep Your Eyes Focused-Mind-Upon Our Lord Jesus Christ

Just like… way back when…
On the Ship in Galilee… 
Storm increasing… waves flowing- 
Winds blowing…a catastrophe 

Seeing in the distance… 
There was a Spirit glowing…  
Walking upon the water…  
Peter… then… asking is it… YOU? 

Jesus coming toward the ship
Peter asked…  Jesus” I see… is that you?  
Please… can I come walk too…??
Jesus replied… Come…
  
Peter eyes-mind-  was Focused 
On Jesus… Our Lord… “Gods’ Son” 
Peter step-off the ship… started 
Walking on the water…Just as Jesus had done

But then… strong wind… 
Distraction and fear played…
Peters’ mind- eyes- 
Was off of Jesus… Christ

Just a Split second..in time
Treachery… Fear… 
Began to play… in Peters’ mind… 
Then he found…he started… sinking down…  
Into the sea of galilee…Jesus said “Ye Little Faith” (Believe)

Just like now a days… 
When bad things come…are way
Just like Strong wind… like way back then…
Treachery… Fear… plays… in peoples’ minds-eyes

Keep Focused on Christ… 
Be Set Free!!!

Keep Shining--No Matter What!!!
