Come Holy Spirit, living in Mary.
Help me to recognize and ponder in my heart all the good you do for me.
Jesus told them to go out, knowing all the fish they would bring back in, and so He gave them the means to bring those fish in. He wasn’t going to send out His disciples to go get a ton a fish, only to let the tools they brought with them falter and ruin the outcome.
And the same goes for you and me. Jesus knows where you are, where you want to go, and where He wants to send you. He has all the details. And He is not going to send you without the graces and means to be successful. He is not going to send you out and let you come back empty-handed, nor is He going to send you out unprepared to return.
Because of this appearance, we can be assured that the Lord will never send us out to do something without the proper means to do it. He doesn’t set His children up for failure. You are placed here and now for a reason, with a purpose, and He will provide all the graces to get through. Trust in the Lord. If their net didn’t tear, even though it had every opportunity to, yours won’t either.
