One day as UnJesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret
with the people crowding around him and listening to the words he said, he saw
at the water’s edge two boats, left there by the fishermen, who were washing their
nets. He got into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, and asked him
to put out a little from the shore. Then he sat down and taught the people from
the boat.
When he had finished speaking, 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…”
Then UnJesus said, “Really? You worked hard all night and didn’t catch anything? You didn’t catch a single thing? What’s wrong with you? Maybe you weren’t trying hard enough… Maybe you shouldn’t really be a fisherman. Maybe you’re not qualified to fish. You really just need to work harder to prove yourself.
