Gospel Reading at the Sunday mass February 7, 2016

I went to the church yesterday in Pangasinan and the Gospel was from Luke: 1:11  ie that Jesus Christ made the 12 fishermen his disciples.  To be FISHERS OF MEN.

Gospel, Luke 5:1-11

1 Now it happened that he was standing one day by the Lake of Gennesaret, with the crowd pressing round him listening to the word of God,
2 when he caught sight of two boats at the water's edge. The fishermen had got out of them and were washing their nets.
3 He got into one of the boats -- it was Simon's -- and asked him to put out a little from the shore. Then he sat down and taught the crowds from the boat.
4 When he had finished speaking he said to Simon, 'Put out into deep water and pay out your nets for a catch.'
5 Simon replied, 'Master, we worked hard all night long and caught nothing, but if you say so, I will pay out the nets.'
6 And when they had done this they netted such a huge number of fish that their nets began to tear,
7 so they signalled to their companions in the other boat to come and help them; when these came, they filled both boats to sinking point.
8 When Simon Peter saw this he fell at the knees of Jesus saying, 'Leave me, Lord; I am a sinful man.'
9 For he and all his companions were completely awestruck at the catch they had made;
10 so also were James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were Simon's partners. ButJesus said to Simon, 'Do not be afraid; from now on it is people you will be catching.'
11 Then, bringing their boats back to land they left everything and followed him.



Reflection:
God wants us to exert more efforts in what we do.  To be good fishermen one must be patient and bide his time.  Nothing happens without God's intervention.  In whatever we do, we pray.  We start the day in work with prayer. Prayer is one of the Ps of marketing.
God works in extra ordinary ways through ordinary people.  God wants you to be extra ordinary.

Are you ordinary or extra ordinary?   Does God work through you to do extra ordinary things? If not what are you?
