113. The apostles, being storm-tossed in the
sea, as soon as they saw the waters leaping up round their Lord’s
feet, and beheld His fearless footsteps on the water, as He walked amid
the raging waves of the sea, and the ship, which was beaten upon by the
waves, had rest as soon as Christ entered it, and they saw the waves
and the winds obeying Him,—then, though as yet they did not
believe in their hearts they believed Him to be God’s true Son,
saying, “Truly Thou art the Son of God.” S. Matt. xiv. 33.
