Immediately he made the disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowds. And after he had dismissed the crowds, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone, but the boat by this time was a long way from the land, beaten by the waves, for the wind was against them. And in the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea. But when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were terrified, and said, โIt is a ghost!โ and they cried out in fear. But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, โTake heart; it is I. Do not be afraid.โ
And Peter answered him, โLord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water.โ He said, โCome.โ So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, โLord, save me.โ Jesus immediately reached out his hand and took hold of him, saying to him, โO you of little faith, why did you doubt?โ And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased. And those in the boat worshiped him, saying, โTruly you are the Son of God.โ
(Matthew 14:22-33 ESV)

I am so thankful for this site. We have a small, older church and few children. Any given Sunday I can have children from two to eight years old in the same class. With the literature you give I can adapt to fit the occasion. Thank you so much and God Bless you for your work.
I agree with Nanci Smith. This is a most wonderful site to get full lessons that is adaptable especially for small churches with classes that ages may range from 2-8 like mine too. And the children get it! Thank you so much!
