And when he was entered into a ship, his disciples followed him. And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful. In this passage, we are taught the effects of fearfulness and the power of faith.
Fear is one of the most destructive emotions known to man.
It can play havoc with the physical body, deranging digestion, interfering with the metabolic changes and the elimination of waste, and upsetting the whole system. Those who indulge in it surround themselves with a steel-gray auric shell which acts as a barrier to the helpful thoughts and prayers of others. We also find in this passage of Scripture an indication of a power man at some future time will possess-control of the elements. Christ Jesus possessed this power, so that even the winds and the sea obeyed Him. Nor can they succeed while they seek a mechanical solution to what is really a manifestation of life.
