The Miraculous Catch of Fish


The miracle of focus for September is the one recorded in John 21 when the disciples have a miraculous catch of large fish. May these Scriptures, poem and meditation encourage us today! Love Lucy x

The Miracles Of God- The Miraculous Catch of Fish

John 21:1-14
“After these things Jesus showed Himself again to the disciples at the Sea of Tiberias, and in this way He showed Himself: Simon Peter, Thomas called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of His disciples were together. Simon Peter said to them, “I am going fishing.”
They said to him, “We are going with you also.” They went out and immediately got into the boat, and that night they caught nothing. But when the morning had now come, Jesus stood on the shore; yet the disciples did not know that it was Jesus. Then Jesus said to them, “Children, have you any food?”
They answered Him, “No.”

And He said to them, “Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.” So they cast, and now they were not able to draw it in because of the multitude of fish.
Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer garment (for he had removed it), and plunged into the sea. But the other disciples came in the little boat (for they were not far from land, but about two hundred cubits), dragging the net with fish. Then, as soon as they had come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid on it, and bread. Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the fish which you have just caught.”

Simon Peter went up and dragged the net to land, full of large fish, one hundred and fifty-three; and although there were so many, the net was not broken. Jesus said to them, “Come and eat breakfast.” Yet none of the disciples dared ask Him, “Who are You?”—knowing that it was the Lord. Jesus then came and took the bread and gave it to them, and likewise the fish.
This is now the third time Jesus showed Himself to His disciples after He was raised from the dead.”

Hold Your Peace

To start off September, we have my poem called "Hold Your Peace" from my Spiritual Shorts series.
Inspired by Exodus 14:14, some helpful questions to ask ourselves today might be, "Am I feeling frustrated right now because of some personal injustice? Have I ever been wrongly accused or misunderstood, leaving me reeling with a whole host of negative emotions?"
If you can relate to either of these areas, I pray this poem can comfort and encourage you today. Much love, Lucy x

The Twelve Tribes of Israel - The Tribe of Gad



To conclude August, we have my poem and study on the next son to be blessed by Jacob which is Gad. Gad is Jacob's seventh son, and the founding father of the tribe of Gad.
There are so many themes found within the study of Gad's life and tribe. I pray this offering from my Twelve Tribes of Israel series is a blessing to you. Love Lucy x
