In Matt 14:22-36, we read the remarkable incident when Jesus walked on water, and the failed attempt of Peter to do the same.   Most often, when we hear this story preached, the focus is on the uncertain faith of Peter.  Today, I also want to talk about the faith of Peter, but with a twist.  I invite you to reflect with me on the notion of misplaced faith.  Misplaced faith.  I also want to remind you that there were in fact two miracles that occurred in this story.
