<P> This story , following the miracle of the feeding of the five thousand , tells how Jesus sent the disciples by ship back to the `` other side '' of the Sea of Galilee ( the eastern side ) while he remained behind , alone , to pray . Night fell and the sea arose as the ship became caught in a wind storm . After rowing against the wind for most of the night , the disciples saw Jesus walking on the sea . They were frightened , thinking they were seeing a spirit , but when Jesus told them not to be afraid , they were reassured . After Jesus entered the ship , the wind ceased , and they arrived at land . </P>
