Thursday, Week XXII, Ordinary Time

When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at the knees of Jesus and said,
“Depart from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man.”
For astonishment at the catch of fish they had made seized him
and all those with him,
and likewise James and John, the sons of Zebedee,
who were partners of Simon.
Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid;
from now on you will be catching men.”
When they brought their boats to the shore,
they left everything and followed him. (Lk 5:1-11)

The Big Fisherman (Simon Peter), in a boat with Jesus, gets more than he bargained for, but with James and John, he makes the right decision: to leave all and follow Jesus.
