As per the Gospel of the day, Jesus stretches out to Peter and pulls him out of the sea and saves him from drowning. There is however no mention of Jesus 'saving' those in the boat from drowning... surprising!
Well, most of us wait in the boat and expect Jesus to 'save' us, without even venturing out into the sea. Each of us is called to do our best and certainly doing the best involves taking risks and failures. That in no way should prevent one from doing our bit. To expect the Lord to walk around saving all those lying and merely waiting for the Lord, is no faith at all.
