Context of Matthew 14:33

31Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him, saying to him, “You of little faith, why did you doubt?” 32When they went up into the boat, the wind ceased. Then those who were in the boat worshiped him, saying, “Truly you are the Son of God.” 34After they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret. 35When the people there recognized him, they sent word into all the surrounding area, and they brought all their sick to him.

• Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 22-33Verses 22-33 Those are not Christ's followers who cannot enjoy being alone with God and their own hearts.
