GOD WHISPERS “FISH”

READ:


And so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men.
-Luke 5:10

THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
Ezekiel 27-29
1 Peter 3

A number of years ago, our sons and I enjoyed some days together drifting and fishing the Madison River in Montana with two fishing guides who also served as our boatmen.
The guide I drew was a man who had lived on the river all his life and knew where the big trout held. He was a quiet man who spoke scarcely two dozen words in all the time he was with us, but his few words enlivened my days.
We were fishing with small flies in choppy water. My eyesight was not what it once was, and I was missing most of the takes. My guide - who was also a soul of patience - began to alert me to by murmuring "fish" when he saw a trout rising under the fly.
When I heard his cue, I lifted the tip of my rod and voila! A trout on the end of my line!
I've often thought of that guide and Jesus' declaration to His fishermen - disciples, "From now on you will catch men" (Luke 5:10). There are great opportunities that come our way every day - people circling around us, searching for that elusive "something" for which their souls crave - occasions to show the love of Christ and speak of the hope that is in us. These are opportunities we might miss if not alerted.
May the Great Angler, who knows every heart, whisper "fish" in our ears and may we have ears to hear. - David Roper
All through this day, O Lord, let me touch as many lives as possible for You - through the words I speak, the prayers I breathe, the letters I write, and the life I live.


When the Spirit prompts, take action.

Today God is calling you (3)

I have prayed for you, that your faith will not fail.' Luke 22:32 NASB

God wants you to do His will, but you'll never reach the place of spiritual maturity in which you're free of Satan. You can overcome him, but you can't eliminate him. Look at Peter. He had only one gear: overdrive. He was always...More
