David Wilkerson emphasizes the importance of keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus, especially during life's storms. He recounts the story of Peter walking on water, illustrating how faith can lift us above our troubles, but also how distractions can lead to doubt and sinking. The disciples were terrified in the storm, yet Peter's boldness to step out in faith brought him closer to Jesus. Wilkerson encourages believers to seek Christ in their crises, reminding them that the more intense the struggle, the more they should pursue a relationship with Him. Ultimately, he calls for a prayerful desire to be drawn closer to the Lord amidst life's challenges.
