8144875143_61c7c424c7_o

Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee.

what does it look like?

smell like?

is it a sunny day? cloudy?

is it quiet? loud? what sounds to you hear?

Jesus saw two brothers.

Simon Peter and Andrew. They were casting a net.

Jesus says;

Come

Follow me

I will make you fishers of men.

At once

they left their nets

their security

their identity

their income

and followed him.

They came. They followed him. And He made them fishers of men.

Going on from there

He saw James and John

They were in their boat

with their father Zebedee

preparing their nets

Jesus called them

Immediately

they left the boat

they left their father

and followed Jesus.

Jesus sees.

He calls.

He invites.

We follow.

Letting go of our nets.

Father, what do I need to let go of today in order to follow?
