Professional fishermen---yes they were.
They knew how to fish.
Even their confidence
Grace ~ It fell from Him. Still falls on our hearts. Luke 4:22So, put your nets out into deep water, says the Carpenter. Luke 5:4. It's a miracle. These seasoned fishermen know how to fish. Only God could have pulled this one off. And grace falls in one of those daily moments where they spend hundreds of hours earning their way. We never know when a Divine Visit, Words of Grace, will fall on us at work.
So what's the insight here? Christ tells Peter to apply himself to this secular calling of his. Don't waste your work. Time spent there is never a hindrance, it's holy. When we have been with God, true joy will result in our work. "We must not abruptly quit our callings because we have not the success in them we desire." Own ourselves as sinful men, redeemed. Don't view your work as a vehicle to prepare for ministry. Work is your ministry.
