OCEANS - Hillside

“You call me out upon the waters / The great unknown where feet may fail…” “And there I find You in the mystery / In oceans deep, my faith will stand.”

This song echoes Peter’s story directly — stepping out into the unknown, trusting Jesus even when fear threatens to overwhelm. It’s also the emotional soundtrack to every moment a child wobbles forward, unsure but hopeful, with a loving guide nearby.

Scripture:

 “Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, ‘Lord, save me!’” — Matthew 14:29–30

Devotional Reflection
Whether it’s Peter on the waves, a child on two wheels, or our own hearts navigating life’s unknowns, the message is the same: step out, trust, and know you’re not alone. Oceans gives voice to that journey — the trembling courage, the faltering steps, and the grace that catches us.

Prayer: Lord, when I feel unsteady, remind me that You’ve called me to walk — not by sight, but by faith. Lead me into deeper trust, and catch me when I fall. Amen.
