‘…He
said to Simon, “Put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a
catch.” Simon answered, “Master, we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t
caught anything. But because You say so, I will let down the nets.”
When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that
their nets began to break. So they signalled their partners in the other
boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full
that they began to sink. When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’
knees and said, “Go away from me, Lord; I am a sinful man!” For he and
all his companions were astonished at the catch… Then Jesus said to
Simon, “Don’t be afraid; from now on you will catch men.” So they…left
everything and followed Him’ (vv. 4-11 NIV). Here are seven
life-changing truths you need to learn: 1) Jesus will come to where you
work and help you; 2) When what you are doing is not working, He will
show you a better way; 3) Even though it may not make sense at the
moment, do what He tells you; 4) The success He has in mind for you is
greater than anything you can envision for yourself; 5) Your existing
systems may not be able to handle what He has in mind, so be willing to
change how you do things; 6) When you experience His goodness, you’ll
fall at His feet and acknowledge Him as your Lord; 7) When you realise
what He has in mind for you, you’ll leave everything and follow Him.
