John 6:21

Miracles and God's interventionProtection and safety

19 When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus approaching the boat, walking on the sea—and they were terrified.

20 But Jesus spoke up: “It is I; do not be afraid.”

Then they were willing to take Him into the boat, and at once the boat reached the shore where they were heading.

22 The next day, the crowd that had remained on the other side of the sea realized that only one boat had been there, and that Jesus had not boarded it with His disciples, but they had gone away alone.

23 However, some boats from Tiberias landed near the place where the people had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks.
