AT 14:28{Perhaps it is night in your soul—as dark as ever it can be. It would not be so bad if you could even distinctly see the waves of the troubled sea on which you are tossing. You do not know where you are. All seems vague and uncertain and wretched and confused. And though the Lord Jesus is very near you, though He has come to you, walking on the water, and has said, "It is I, be not afraid," you cannot see Him, and you are not at all sure it is His voice; or if it is, that He is speaking to you. So, of course, you are "troubled."

“If He walked that water, what would you do?”
Then fell the answer, glad and true,
“If He beckoned me,
I would go to Him on the pathless sea.”
