The Miraculous Catch

All night they toiled, nets empty and bare,
Yet at His word, they cast without despair.
Obedience in the face of doubt,
A lesson in trust, when faith is stout.

The nets grew heavy, the catch was vast,
A miracle unfolded, their doubts surpassed.
Simon Peter, humbled, fell to his knees,
Acknowledging his sin, seeking grace with ease.

“From now on, you’ll fish for souls,” He said,
A new purpose, a path ahead.
Leaving behind their old, familiar ways,
To follow Christ, through all their days.

God’s provision, abundant and grand,
Beyond what they could ever understand.
When we follow Him, our needs He meets,
Equipping us for the tasks, our hearts He greets.

Total commitment, they left all behind,
A challenge for us, to seek and find.
What must we let go, to fully embrace,
The calling of Christ, His love and grace.

Faith in action, Peter’s story shows,
The power of belief, in the path we chose.
Trust in Jesus, embrace His call,
Commit to follow, give Him your all.
