“I tell you the truth,
unless you turn from your sins
and become like little children,
you will never get into the Kingdom of Heaven.
So anyone who becomes as humble as this little child
is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven.

and walked on the water toward Jesus.
But when he saw the strong wind and the waves,
he was terrified and began to sink.
“Save me, Lord!” he shouted.
Jesus immediately reached out and grabbed him.
“You have so little faith,” Jesus said.
“Why did you doubt me?”
When they climbed back into the boat,
the wind stopped.
Then the disciples worshiped him.
“You really are the Son of God!” they exclaimed.

…the disciples were in trouble far away from land,
for a strong wind had risen,
and they were fighting heavy waves.
About three o’clock in the morning,
Jesus came toward them,
walking on the water.
When the disciples saw him walking on the water,
they were terrified.
In their fear, they cried out, “It’s a ghost!”
But Jesus spoke to them at once,
“Don’t be afraid,” he said.
“Take courage. I am here!”
