Matthew 14:22-36. Unbelievable mercy to unbelievable sinners: Take heart; it is I. - a podcast by KFUO Radio

Rev. Jason Bredeson, pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church in Sacramento, CA joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study Matthew 14:22-36.Jesus comes to the disciples and tells them to take heart. Everyone must have been exhausted after the news of John the Baptist’s death and feeding the 5,000 men. Jesus’ first words are “Take heart; it is I.” In His compassion, He comforts the disciples with His identity as the great “I am.” The same God who led the Israelites out of slavery into the promised land would lead the disciples on their journey. It is clear that this King has all authority, even over the storms, and He shows that His kingly rule was that of patiently calling sinners to Himself. “Lord Jesus, Son of God, as the great I am, we come to You knowing that our eyes are not on You like we should. Immediately come to us and lift us out of the pit into Your Light. In Your name, Amen”
