Recently I talked in one of my sermons about Peter, the disciple of Jesus. He experienced two events completely differently. The same boat, same nets and same place, but the results were completely different nevertheless. What was the cause for that? He went for fishing in the night on his own strength and caught nothing, but the second time he did the same work however with a large difference. Indeed he departered with the confidence and the dependence on Jesus Christ only, that´s why he became so successful fischerman even during daytime. This is marvelous. Where does the secret come from? If we obey Jesu instructions completely and obey his commandments, even if we do not understand it in that particular moment he will reward us and give us a successful life. Don´t depend on your feelings! Let´s try it in your daily life and you will find out that it will work.
Here you can see Peter after a disappointed night ful of work and still he was unable to catch even one fish. In this Situation Jesus met him and challenged him to do what he is commanding him. Peter obeyed and was successful.
