Wouldn't it have been awesome to see Jesus work in the way that he did. Healing people just by speaking and touching them. I know that we should be praying and asking for those things to happen, but I think it's harder for us to have faith with because we don't get to experience it in the same way. The story in the boat is one of my favorites because it really does show that we are weak and tend to lose faith, but that God is there with us all the time and we just need to trust and know that he can still the waters for us if we just ask.
We need to be careful of being led astray and not listen to and follow those that would try and do that. We should listen for and ask for the wisdom of the Lord so that we can make righteous choices. If we listen we can be assured of the security of God and we don't have to dread the disaster that could lay ahead.

I think you are right. It's harder because we don't see or experience it as they did then. And even then people didn't believe or had a hard time with it. Faith seems to be something that is easily lost.
It warns to listen to your parents and not be enticed by sinful men. Be open to wisdom's teaching or when you seek it, it will not answer.
