Third Sunday of Easter John 21:1-19

“Simon Peter went over and dragged the net ashore.”

When Jesus asks for some fish to add to the fire, it is Simon Peter who obeys him and drags the net ashore. So often in the spiritual life we wait for someone else to take the lead. We stand back and let someone else do the heavy lift and only join in when others get onboard. In this passage, Peter despite all his flaws does what Christ asks immediately. He is obedient even when he does not understand what the Lord is asking and consequently his ministry is successful as symbolized by the catching of the 153 large fish. May we all be like Peter and cast our next over where the Lord calls us to and drag it ashore and present the catch to the Lord.
