When his followers saw him walking on the water, they were afraid. They said, "It's a ghost!" and cried out in fear.
27
But Jesus quickly spoke to them, "Have courage! It is I. Do not be afraid."
28
Peter said, "Lord, if it is really you, then command me to come to you on the water."
29
Jesus said, "Come." And Peter left the boat and walked on the water to Jesus.
30
But when Peter saw the wind and the waves, he became afraid and began to sink. He shouted, "Lord, save me!"
31
Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught Peter. Jesus said, "Your faith is small. Why did you doubt?"
32
After they got into the boat, the wind became calm.
33
Then those who were in the boat worshiped Jesus and said, "Truly you are the Son of God!"
34
When they had crossed the lake, they came to shore at Gennesaret.
35
When the people there recognized Jesus, they told people all around there that Jesus had come, and they brought all their sick to him.
36
They begged Jesus to let them touch just the edge of his coat, and all who touched it were healed.
