Take Courage; Christ is on the Way

In Matthew 14: 25-27, the Apostle recalls Jesus walking out on the water in the midst of the storm. The Bible says "shortly before dawn Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake. When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost,” they said, and cried out in fear. But Jesus immediately said to them: “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.” Many of the disciples were fishermen by trade; the legend of the lake was that ghosts of the fishermen killed in previous storms would haunt the lake in dangerous storms; Jesus declares his power in the midst of the storm as He walks out on the water. When the storm seems to be at its height, take courage; Christ is on the way!
