Throw the Nets...Again
Throwing out the nets again is difficult. It didn't work last time. You'd look silly trying again. And yet, Jesus is drawing...
And Simon answered, “Master, we toiled all night and took nothing! But at your word I will let down the nets.”
Luke 5:5
Ever feel like Peter?
“I’ve done that before God. I didn’t catch anything.”
But you feel like he wants you to throw out the net again.
Peter, his brother, his buddy and his brother were professional fishermen.
They’d look silly throwing out their nets again. At this time of the day.
You think you’d like silly trying that again.
And yet you feel like he wants you to throw out the net again.
The shore is safer. Listening to Jesus teach is safer.
But Jesus also wants to show you what he can do in you. Not just want he can do through you.
Take a deep breath.
Row back out.
Throw the nets…
