Matthew 14:22-33 NAS
Immediately He
made the disciples get into the boat and go ahead of Him to the other
side, while He sent the crowds away. After He had sent the crowds
away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray; and when it was
evening, He was there alone. But the boat was already a long
distance from the land, battered by the waves; for the wind was
contrary. And in the fourth watch of the night He came to them,
walking on the sea. When the disciples saw Him walking on the sea,
they were terrified, and said, "It is a ghost!" And they
cried out in fear. But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, "Take
courage, it is I; do not be afraid."
Peter said to Him, "Lord if it is You, command me to come to You on
the water." And He said, "Come!"
And Peter got out of the boat, and walked on the water and came toward
Jesus. But seeing the wind, he cried out, "Lord, save
me!" Immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and took hold of
him and said to him, "You
of little faith, why did you doubt?"
When they got into the boat, the wind stopped. And those who were in
the boat worshiped Him, saying "You are certainly God's Son!"
