Do Some Fishing
"Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will make you fishers of me."
Mark 1:17
Two friends crossed paths early one Sunday morning and Fred said, "come on, John. Let's go fishing." John said, "No, I can't. I'm going to church."
Again, Fred said, "Come on. Grab your fishing pole. We'll have a great time." Again, John said, "No, I told you, I'm going to church."
Numerous times, Fred prevailed upon his friend to go fishing, and each time John answered back that he was going to church.
Finally, Fred said, "John, seven times I have asked you to go fishing with me. NOT ONCE have you asked me to go to church with you!"
Prayer: Ask God to place someone in your life that you can invite to experience worship this Sunday.
“We somehow think that the Church is here for us; we forget that we are the Church, and we’re here for the world.â€
