John 21 ~ While Peter the impetuous denier, John the Beloved and several others were fishing on their Sea of Galilee worksite, Jesus appeared. They had caught nothing so Jesus advised where to cast their nets. 153 large fish later, they lugged the great catch towards shore and were greeted with the *slavor of fish and warm coals. "Breakfast is served ~ come eat."
Now what a different day these men experienced with Jesus' help. Jesus rescued them from a fruitless fishless day on the Sea, lit the coals and prepared breakfast. Think how frustrating their day would have been if Jesus had not partnered with them in their work.
I wonder how many fruitlessly frustrating days we've endured on our own? Imagine the bounty of repercussive goodness in and through our actions day in and day out with Jesus setting the lyrics and humming the tune. And surely this Partnership Principle applies to our families, raising children, serving and blessing all we meet. We are not alone. We never will be...
