“But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, “Be of good cheer! It is I; do not be afraid.”” – Matthew 14:27 NKJV
Imagine the darkness of the night and the storm that Peter was facing here.
“Common sense” would tell people that it is ridiculous to even get out of the boat.
But, Peter only had one thought: “I’ve got to get to Jesus.”
This belief replaced his terror. This confidence in Jesus Christ put the courage in his heart that he can get through the problem as he walked on water with Him.
This is also how Jesus will change the way you think and live.
