What Peter’s Cry, “Lord, Save Me,” Teaches About Seeking Help

When a crisis comes suddenly, we may not have the words for a long prayer. Sometimes all we can say is, “Lord, save me.” Matthew 14:28–31 tells how Peter began sinking in a storm and called out to Jesus, who immediately reached out and caught him. The account reminds believers that faith does not mean life will be free of difficulties. The disciples faced a storm even as they followed Jesus. Hardship does not necessarily mean God has abandoned us. Peter also responded when Jesus called him to come. His step onto the water showed his willingness to act on Jesus’ invitation. The story encourages believers to seek God’s help when fear and difficulty arise.
