Jesus' walking on water demonstrates the impact of where our focus is. Peter and the disciples were so terrified of the storms and waves that they took their focus off Jesus, something that is common for Christians today. Turning back to focus our attention on Jesus allows us to acknowledge our problems, but not make them the focus of our lives. Developing a vertical perspective will prevent us from concentrating on the problems and things we don't have in this life.
