It’s Not in the Shallows

Luke 5:1 NIV One day as Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret, the people were crowding around him and listening the word of God.

Luke 5:2 NIV He saw at the water’s edge two boats, left there by the fishermen, who were washing their nets.

Luke 5:3 NIV He got into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, and asked him to put out a little from shore. Then he sat down and taught the people from the boat.

Luke 5:4 NIV When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch.”

Business = things you are very occupied & engaged with

Luke 5:5 NKJV but Simon answered and said to Him, “Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net.”

Luke 5:4 NIV When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch.”

Shallow relationships are with people who want something from you & nothing for you

“let down the nets for a catch.”

“nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net”

Luke 5:6 NLV When they had done this, they caught so many fish, their net started to break.
