Duc in altum mare! Cast your net into the deep!
The miraculous episode of the miraculous catch of the fish represents the invasion of God’ grace. All we need is obedience and cooperation to his word as he joins us in our personal boat of life. At your command, Lord, I will cast the net” Are you ready to obey or to cooperate with Jesus once he decides to get into your boat?
For the apostles everything else in our lives is secondary when the Lord Jesus Christ gets into our boat. There, then, he will always lead you to the depths. Duc in altum Mare!
