He said to them,
"Cast the net
     on the right side of the boat,
     and you will find some."
So they cast it,
and now
   they were not able to haul it in,
because of the quantity of fish.

                      John 21. 6

(Do we argue with God,
     I already tried that
            or that is impossible?
Or respond to His leading,
     try the other side.
"Follow Me in this,"
be faithful,
and now
     watch what God does with it.
There is always
             a profound difference
   between doing it on our own
and when we "fish" with Him
         -- whatever that may be.
Sometimes tangible,
   and sometimes bearing fruit
   far beyond our lifetimes.)

O LORD,
Please order our day.
Guide our hands and thoughts
       and our work.
Not that we would be successful,
    but Your glory may be revealed.
Help us to be faithful
             in the work You have given.
Empower us to write Your name
                   all over it.
