The little faith that Jesus described that St Peter had is  a trust that is present yet fragile and easily overwhelmed in hard times. Jesus isn’t telling St Peter to pack up his feelings of fear and push them aside. He did not let St Peter drown, the Lord will never abandon us in our struggles and trials. He is always there ready to lift us up again when we fall. Jesus’ statement to St Peter was one of correction rather than condemnation, He wanted St Peter to have faith in the midst of trial and fear. The calming of the storm and Jesus’ words of "It is I,"  shows that the power of chaos and evil are defeated. Indeed, the Lord will come to rescue and sustain us in the midst of our struggles and trials. We must also never forget to thank Him when times are good. May we always remember what the Lord has done for us in good times and in bad.
