After weeks of planning, finally that long awaited fishing trip was carried out last weekend. A few friends and I were focused on catching a certain fish; we have packed and prepared the right bait, the necessary equipments and even hired a bigger boat to improve our chances for success in catching this fish.
Despite all that efforts, we kept catching different type of fish and we would throw those fish back to the sea and try again.
In the Bible, Jesus told the disciples to be fisher of men. “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men” - (Matthew 4:19), when Jesus said that, He did not mention that you should only ‘fish’ for certain group of people. He used the plural word – men, this simply means the Gospel should be spread to everyone without judgment or favoritism.
Spread the Gospel to everyone; don’t let their status quo, their differences or even unpleasant personalities stops you from letting them know that Jesus is real. Be a fisher of many.
Matthew 4:19 (ESV)
And he said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.
