Awestruck


Follow me
Castings Crowns

..I have nothing to give
but surrender inside,

`Let down your nets
this is not the end
from now on you'll be 
fishers of men
Follow Me,  Follow Me`

**

..He said to Simon,
"Now go out where it is deeper,
 and let down your
nets to catch some fish"

"Master," Simon replied, "we have worked hard all night 
and didn't catch a thing. 
But if You say so, I'll let the nets down again."
And this time the nets were so full of fish they began to tear!
A shout for help brought their partners in the other boat,
and soon both boats were filled with fish and on the verge of sinking.
When Simon Peter realized what had happened,
he fell to his knees before Jesus and said,
"Oh Lord, please leave me -
I am too much of a sinner to be around You"
For he was awestruck by the number of fish they had caught..(vs.4-9)
Jesus replied "Don't be afraid!
From now on you'll be fishing for people!"
And as soon as they landed, they left everything 
and followed Jesus. (vs.10-11)

Luke 5:4-9
