Mark 1:14–20
Now after John was arrested, Jesus came to
Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God, and saying, "The time is
fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has come near; repent, and believe in the
good news." As Jesus passed along the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his
brother Andrew casting a net into the sea--for they were fishermen. And Jesus
said to them, "Follow me and I will make you fish for people." And
immediately they left their nets and followed him. As he went a little farther,
he saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John, who were in their boat
mending the nets. Immediately he called them; and they left their father
Zebedee in the boat with the hired men, and followed him.
Reflection
l How does Jesus call me?
l What deters me from following Jesus?
