Luke 5:4-10
Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep,
and let down your nets for a draught.
And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and
have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.
And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and
their net brake. And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other
ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the
ships, so that they began to sink.
When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, Depart from me;
for I am a sinful man, O Lord. For he was astonished, and all that were
with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken: And so was
also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And
Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men.
When it seems like you’ve toiled long and hard and are getting nowhere, Jesus is all the answer you need. Cast your cares upon Him. He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7).
