[Jesus] said to them, "It is I; don't be afraid." Then they were willing to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat reached the shore where they were heading.
- Fear nothing with God in your life.
- First, Jesus uses a name ("I Am") that identifies himself with God who delivered Moses and the Israelites from Egypt.
- Second, he uses a surprisingly frequent command found throughout the Bible: "Don't be afraid."
- When we are willing to invite Jesus into our lives during the middle of our storms and messes, he not only says, "I Am, don't be afraid!" but he also helps us find our way to our most important destination, ultimate deliverance.
