Let Jesus Catch Your Heart
That's the end of this homily.
Who do you know that needs to hear the call of Christ? Is it you? Is it a friend or loved one? Fr. Michael reminds us that God is always loving us, no matter what we do or how we feel about ourselves.
The reading
Luke 5:1–11
...When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at the knees of Jesus and said,
"Depart from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man."
For astonishment at the catch of fish they had made seized him
and all those with him,
and likewise James and John, the sons of Zebedee,
who were partners of Simon.
Jesus said to Simon, "Do not be afraid;
from now on you will be catching men."
When they brought their boats to the shore,
they left everything and followed him.
