Cowardice

Cowardice is the lack of mental or moral strength. Jesus addressed this concept with His disciples when they feared for their lives during a storm at sea, while He was asleep in the stern of the boat. When the waves began covering the vessel, the disciples woke Him and pleaded for deliverance. In response to their fear, Jesus asked why they were acting like cowards and then rebuked the wind and the sea (Matthew 8:26). At this point, the disciples already knew that Jesus was the Messiah and had witnessed remarkable signs demonstrating that He was truly God in the flesh. Their cowardice, therefore, was without cause, for by simply observing Jesus, they should have recognized that they had no reason to fear.
