After praying, He followed His disciples by walking on the sea. Meanwhile, as the disciples were already on the middle of the sea, a fierce storm encountered them so that the winds blew contrary to them. When they saw Jesus, at first they were afraid of Him thinking He was a ghost. Then, Jesus said, "Be of good cheer, it is I; do not be afraid."
