And He got into one of the boats, which was Simon\u2019s, and asked him to put out a little way from the land. And He sat down and began teaching the people from the boat. When He had finished speaking, He said to Simon, \u201cPut out into the deep water and let down your nets for a catch.\u201d Simon answered and said, \u201cMaster, we worked hard all night and caught nothing, but I will do as You say and let down the nets.\u201d When they had done this, they enclosed a great quantity of fish, and their nets began to break; so they signaled to their partners in the other boat for them to come and help them. And they came and filled both of the boats, so that they began to sink. But when Simon Peter saw that, he fell down at Jesus\u2019 feet, saying, \u201cGo away from me Lord, for I am a sinful man!\u201d For amazement had seized him and all his companions because of the catch of fish which they had taken; and so also were James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, \u201cDo not fear, from now on you will be catching men.\u201d When they had brought their boats to land, they left everything and followed Him.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-key-focus-of-the-passage-and-jesus-character\"><strong>Key Focus of the Passage and Jesus\u2019 Character<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">The focus is&nbsp;<strong>obedience, revelation, and calling<\/strong>.
