14Now after John was arrested, Jesus came to Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God, 15and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has come near; repent, and believe in the good news.” 16As Jesus passed along the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the sea—for they were fishermen. 17And Jesus said to them, “Follow me and I will make you fish for people.”18And immediately they left their nets and followed him. 19As he went a little farther, he saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John, who were in their boat mending the nets. 20Immediately he called them; and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men, and followed him.
They were fishers when he called them
to make a big change in their lives.
What things might we be doing
when Jesus with his call arrives?
How many times has he called us
to follow in a certain way
but we think we are too busy
and should wait for a better day?
Some say they cannot hear him
and they know not what to do
but perhaps we’re not focused
to make a big change in their lives.

Some say they cannot hear him
and they know not what to do
but perhaps we’re not focused
and his message does not get through
Lent is a very good reason
to open our spiritual eyes
so we are able to react
when such a call will arise.
