When you look at John two you notice two very different views of Jesus. At the wedding, Jesus turns water to wine - CONVERSION... In the same chapter, Jesus makes a whip and CLEANSES the temple. It's important to note the order of these two events. You (the temple) don't need to be cleansed and then converted. Your conversion will cause a cleansing.

Confused and frustrated the disciples went out fishing in the evening. Without catching anything that night, Jesus came to them in the morning and told them to cast the net on the right side of the boat which blessed them with an abundance of fish. This shows us that we can do nothing apart from Christ. We are asked to spread the gospel which may not always work in our favor. However, with a little patience and diligence, the Lord can use us and whatever resources we have for His Glory. We will face difficulties, but stand firm and our reward will await us in Heaven. Go fish!
