Mat 8:26 | MHM | STEP | v. 26 : Jesus answered, Why are you afraid, O you of little faith? Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm (Matthew 8:26 ). Jesus first corrected the disciples for being afraid and not trusting him fully. Then he showed his power over nature by calming the storm with just a word. This proves that Jesus is Lord over all creation (Psalm 65:7 ). He wants us to trust him, even when things seem out of control.
