Faith means get out of that boat!

The definition of faith is confidence or trust in a person or thing; or belief that is not based on proof. In Hebrews 11:1 it says that  faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things In not seen.(KJV) . In Matthew 14  :28 and 29  we read the story of how Jesus was walking toward the disciples on water and Peter said, Lord if that's you tell me to come to you on water , so Jesus did and until Peter let his faith waiver he was walking on water to Jesus.
So as humans we all have faith in something but, when it comes to needing to test our faith we tend to let our faith waiver and then we sink into the ocean of our troubles. You may say /// I have no faith or .... I don't have much faith but, that really isn't true... 
We have faith that when we sit in a chair it is going to hold us, we have faith that when someone we love tells us they love us that they really do,  we have faith that when we go to sleep at night we will again awaken in the morning...We have faith in what the doctor's tell us , and that they know what they are doing when they perscribe us medicine..... or here is a big one,,, for you women.... when the doctor tells you you are pregnant you have faith that there really is a child in there , not a goat or a chicken  but a mini you...  and you believe this sight unseen until you have progressed far enough along to get an ultra sound done to actually see the child.  So why do we let our faith waiver when it comes to the words of our Lord and Savior? Why  do you doubt His words that will never fail you yet believe the words of humans who will always fail you?
Jesus says : by His stripes we are healed.... get out of that boat and start having faith that you are healed..... Jesus says we are more than conquers    .... stop running from the enemy and start standing firm against him... Jesus said Greater things than he has done shall we do , so get out of that negative thinking and trust in his words...... God's words have been around  since the beginning of time and not failed  so we need to take that leap of faith and start believing in them and acting on them.... Get out of that boat and go to Jesus on the water, don't look to the right or to the left, just keep your eyes on Jesus and you won't fall.
