Key to Salvation: St Peter

Matthew 14:30 When Peter saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, “Lord, save me.” Peter’s story of walking on water teaches us to fix our focus on Jesus in all that we do. It was fear replacing confidence which caused him to sink. Therefore, don’t let fear distract you from God! Martyrdom of Peter on the inverted cross: It is believed that Peter requested this form of crucifixion as he felt he was unworthy to be crucified in the same manner as Jesus.
