One player had pocket Aces at the online table. But "John" made three of a kind and won a big pot. That led the loser to remark: "John is a water walker."
We honestly were unsure what that player meant. But we commented that we believe in "Someone" who really has walked on water.
No one at the table replied to our comment. But in case you're puzzled by it, we're talking about Jesus. "In the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking on the sea," says Matthew 14:25 (KJV).
Read a few verses beyond that and you'll find Peter tried to do what Jesus did. It worked for awhile, but then Peter "was afraid" and started to sink (verse 30). Jesus offered this analysis of what happened: "O you of little faith, wherefore did you doubt?" (verse 31)
If you have the "faith" or daring to make a big bet on a straight or flush draw (or even less), why not try to have faith in Jesus? He's a much more certain bet -- especially beyond this life.
