Jesus calms the storm, walks on water, heals the sick, the lame and the blind and even raises the dead- all miracles demonstrating his love and teaching his disciples the miraculous power of faith.

Summary:

The Miracles of Jesus begins with a test  of the disciples’ faith as their as their boat is tossed about on the Sea of  Galilee by a fierce storm. Jesus awakens to calm the storm and asks Peter and the others why they were afraid and why they didn’t have faith in Him to calm the storm.

We learn of miracles performed by Jesus, including his healing of the palsied child, David, and raising Jairus’ daughter, Sarah from the dead. Because of her faith, just the touch of Jesus’ robe heals a woman who had been sick for 12 years.

Peter and the others disciples find it hard to believe that faith alone can accomplish so much. While out fishing, Peter sees Jesus walking on the water, seeks to join him and strides across the water’s surface until his faith weakens. Jesus explains to the disciples that if their faith is at least as great as that of the tiny mustard seed, then they can do all that he does.  The people living in Galilee believe the miracle they see, but not Caiaphas, the high priest, who angrily calls Jesus a false Messiah.

The video ends in a loving expression of faith Jesus asks of his disciples and followers as we see little David and Sarah, now healthy and happy, running and playing, their laughter filling our hearts.
