Pedro começa a andar sobre as águas, mas com medo do vento forte começa a afundar, clamando por ajuda. Jesus o salva, dizendo que sua fé era fraca. O documento reflete sobre como diferentes pessoas podem ter experiências distintas ao receberem a mesma palavra de Deus, dependendo de suas atitudes e ações.
El devocional habla sobre la falta de amor hacia Dios y los demás, citando Apocalipsis 2:4-5. Exhorta a los lectores a pedirle al Espíritu Santo que revele áreas donde han perdido la pasión y el primer amor por Dios, y a comprometerse a enfocarse completamente en Jesucristo y su reino. La oración final pide a Dios perdón por haberlo olvidado, y ayuda para reencontrar su amor y amar a los hermanos.
