About The Miraculous Catch
After a long, fruitless night on the water, Simon and his partners were washing their nets on the shore of the Sea of Galilee when Jesus stepped into the boat and told them to push out into the deep and let down their nets once more. What followed strained the nets to breaking and filled two boats so full they began to sink, a haul so overwhelming that the fishermen fell to their knees in astonishment. It was in that moment, surrounded by the silver gleam of fish and the smell of the lake at dawn, that Jesus spoke the words that changed everything: "Follow me."
