Luke 5:2 “and saw two boats standing by the lake; but the fishermen had gone from them and were washing their nets.”
Jesus immediately knew what was happening here. These fishermen had toiled through the night and now were working to call it a day, though day was just beginning. Their nets needed washing, and mending. This cleaned out any debris they might have caught inadvertently in their failed attempts to catch fish. So, they were very mindful of their failure at the current moment.
Heavenly Father, thank You for understanding us so well! You know all there is to know about us. And, You come into our lives and intersect with our deepest needs. You don’t simply save our souls and walk off, You care about our every action and help us to live the abundant life. We must never forget that all the love we have for our own children cannot compare to the love You have for each of us. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
