“Surely Jesus loves fishermen for HE CHOSE THEM for His own, to be with Him and learn from Him and someday share His home. It must have been their trust in God and patience He found rare, that keeps them very NEAR HIS HEART and ever IN HIS CARE.”

“God Grant that I may live to fish until my dying day, and when it comes to my last cast, I then most humbly pray; when in the Lord’s safe landing net, I’m peacefully asleep, that in His mercy I be judged as good enough to keep.”
