DAY FOUR – Saturday, March 5, 2022
Matthew 4:18-22
Jesus recruits his first four disciples: Simon (Peter), Andrew, James, and John. Let us place ourselves in this picture. We are fishing off the dock at the foot of Queen Street or repairing our boat at Port Perry Marina. A travelling preacher walks by and says, “Follow me and I will make you fish for people”. How many of us would immediately turn our backs on our careers and family to follow that man into a completely unknown future? I believe it fair to say, that action would require divine intervention today, as it surely did 2,000 years ago.
