Luke,
Chapter 5, verse 9-10:
9 For astonishment at the catch of fish
they had made seized him and all those with him, 10 and likewise
James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners of Simon. Jesus said to
Simon, “Do not be afraid; from now on you will be catching men.”
The Lord says that to each of us. We all play a role in the plan of God and are
forevermore fishers of men.
Notice how our Lord took simple fishermen and using
their raw natural talent he, even in their sinfulness, was able to mold them
into legends. To do this for them they
had to have Faith. Faith is the opposite
of fear. It is an expression of love.
Christ needs good men who hear the call of our Lord
to be a fisher of men. If today you hear
His voice; harden not your heart. Be not
afraid.
