St Patrick

1Peter 4:7-11, Ps. 106, Luke 5:1-11

Each one of us has received a special grace

Jesus only asked Peter to do something he understood; to go fishing. They were tired after an unsuccessful night, yet honoured Jesus by doing what seemed foolish. Like at Cana here too results are miraculous. Peter is overwhelmed with his sin before the glory of God revealed in Jesus. Later Peter said, “Each one of us has received a special grace, so like good stewards… put yourself at the service of others.” Ask God to show you how to use your gifts and talents for his glory and hear him say “Do not be afraid.”
