GOSPEL READING: Mt 14. 22-33
Among the disciples Peter was certainly a fisherman. He was confident of himself in the sea. This is one of the reasons why he asked Jesus to let him also walk on the water. Jesus wanted to teach him (probably) a lesson and so he let him do it. Peter tried it by himself and he was a failure. Jesus had already said once to Peter that unless it is revealed from the father you would not have said this.
Jesus taught the disciples that they should have faith. In the case of miracles also, Jesus told the persons who were healed that their faith had healed them. In life anything positive or successful is a gift of God and this is given to those who are men of faith. Faith is essential for a happy and successful life. Men of little faith also live their lives but they struggle through difficulties and problems.
நம்பிக்கை வாழ்க்கைக்கு அடிப்படையானது. வாழ்க்கையில் நல்லது வெற்றிகரமானது நிறைவானது எல்லாம் நம்பிக்கையில்தான் நடக்கிறது. நம்பிக்கை குறைவு துன்பங்களையும் துயரங்களையும் எதிர்கொள்ள வேண்டியிருக்கிறது
