Jesus Christ
Matthew 5:19 "Follow me, and I will
make you fishers of men."
Last month, we talked about finding our
treasure by using God's Global
Positioning System (GPS). As a review,
God's GPS system consist of His Son,
His Word, His Spirit, and His presence to
help us to reach our purpose. But in light
of everything that is happening in today's
society with housing foreclosures, rising
gas prices, and empty food banks, you
may be asking the questions: "How can I
even think about reaching my purpose
when I lost my job?" "How am I supposed
to find my treasure, if I don't have enough
money to buy gas?
In Luke the 5th chapter, you will find four
fishermen who faced the same dilemma.
Each and every day, they would go out in
their boats hoping, wishing, and praying
that they would catch enough fish to feed
their families. You see, their lives--their
survival-- depended upon the number of
fish that they caught each day. Well, this
particular day, they didn't catch anything.
They sat by the seashore tired, upset,
hopeless, frustrated, and wondering how
they were going to put food on the table. In
fact, in Luke 5:5, you can hear the
frustration in Simon's voice when he
said "Master, we have toiled (worked
hard)
all night and caught nothing.
