The Marvellous Catch

Jesus encouraged them to go out once more, deeper into the Sea of Galilee to cast their nets and they were astonished at their catch. They were overjoyed!  They were amazed by what they had seen, and they began to realise that Jesus was no ordinary man. When they returned to shore, Jesus invited them to follow him and to become fishers of men, his disciples. They happily left their boats and nets and helped Jesus spread the Good News of God’s love.

Lord Jesus,

you called Peter and his friends to follow you,

And you have also called each of us.

Help us to trust in you, as Peter did, and make our faith grow stronger every day.

Amen
