This story of Jesus revealing himself to his disciples for the third time after being raised from the dead encourages me. They had no idea who he was when it was dawn and Jesus was standing by the shore, asking them if they had caught anything to eat. When they said “No,” he told them to cast their nets to the right side of the boat. They caught so many they had to drag them to shore, realizing then the man on the shore with the charcoal fire was Jesus. He said to them: “Come have breakfast.”
When we go back to doing something we haven’t done in a long time and do not succeed, let us hope we hear something encouraging that suggests a positive change. If we try it, and it brings real success, let us pray that we recognize Jesus is blessing us. And give thanks over breakfast.

AMEN!

Patricia thank you for your comments this morning. Homily this am priests told us Peter was uncomfortable with his faith and went back to what he was comfortable with fishing. Priest told us we should move out of our comfort zone and try be more an evangelist. Interesting. Padre Pio's saying for today I will share on Obedience Where there is no obedience, there is no virtue, where there is no virtue, there is no good. We're good is wanting, there is no love. Where there is no love, there is no God. Where God is not, there is no...
