 The Miraculous Draught of Fishes
In Luke’s account of the calling of the first apostles, the fishermen return empty-handed after a long night of fishing in their boats. At Jesus’ command, they lower their nets once more and harvest more fish than their boats can hold, prompting Peter to confess his unworthiness in Jesus’ presence. While the other fishermen struggle with their hefty catch, Peter bows on bended knees before Jesus, a gesture that underscores his primacy among the disciples in Luke’s Gospel. In response to Peter’s wonder at the miracle, Jesus assures his new apostle: “Fear not; from now on you’ll catch men.” Peter and his companions leave behind their fishing boats to follow Jesus in his ministry. I would say to my children when certain things did not work out for them, “don’t worry, there are more fish in the sea.” That adage relates to more than being discouraged in romance, it relates to our life as a parish family. God’s gifts are plentiful. There is always more in store, if only we have faith. There is no end to the bountiful love Christ has for us – more deep and wide than the sea – but our duty and calling is to persevere in believing, and to continue to be fishers of humankind.
See you Sunday! Bindy+
