We do many things on our own and we are disappointed.
We invite you lord to enter into our boat of life
Direct our ways ..we are ready to cast our works and lives as you say lord...
Jesus showed that with him in life their catch will be more.
When Simon Peter saw this he fell at the knees of Jesus saying, ‘Leave me, Lord; I am a sinful man.’ For he and all his companions were completely overcome by the catch they had made;
Let my blessings make me realize,how unworthy I am to be blessed but my Lord blesses me..to lead me to the true eternal gain and joy
But Christ is calling to follow him...
Jesus manifested Simon how abundantly his presence can change his life..with his manifestation Jesus was giving assurance of a firm hope...to increase his faith to follow him- the real way truth and life.
1. Peter allows Jesus to use his boat to preach the gospel. Do we allow Jesus to use our areas of daily works to reflect/preach the gospel?
2. Put the net to deep. Jesus pens wisdom for Peter where to cast net to get big catch. Do we allow Jesus to direct our ways of work/ living? Do we obey him?
3. Go away from me I am a sinful man.
Seeing that he is blessed , Peter realises the greatness of God and a deep knowledge of himself and his helplessness... that he is unworthy for this blessings..he is humbled and thankful. Does the blessings and providence in our life makes us aware of the unconditional love of our God and his power? Does it creates in us humility and gratitude to God?
Jesus says do not be afraid, I will make you fishers of man.
4 realising and recognizing Jesus and his providence is beyond earthly gains, they follow him in faith that built up by the incident.
5.Allowing our life boat to be used by Jesus to proclaim his good news, opens us up wisdom for blessed living with eternal treasure. Let us be thankful for god's love and follow him...seek ye first the kingdom of God and it's righteousness
