3rd Sunday of Easter (C)

Short Reflection for the 3^rd Easter Sunday (C)

Readings: Acts 5: 27-32. 40-41; Revelation 5: 11-15; John 21: 1-19

Text:   Jesus said to them, "Children, have you caught anything to eat?" They answered him, "No." So he said to them, "Cast the net over the right side of the boat and you will find something." So they cast it, and were not able to pull it in because of the number of fish. (John 21: 5-6)

Reflection:  Whole night, the apostles had no catch, yet by following the ‘command’ of Jesus to cast the net again by the starboard; the catch was in great abundance.  The lack of catch results from our human efforts, while the catch in great abundance is to heed Jesus’ command: ‘duc in altum’ (Go into the deep)! www.badaliyya.blogspot.com
