SWIM, PETER, SWIM!


Swim, Peter, Swim!
July 29, 2016

Jesus stood upon the shore of the Sea of Galilee,
But even His closest disciples were unaware that it was He.
He asked them if they had caught any fish, for they were casting nets,
They answered honestly they had caught absolutely nothing yet.
So this seeming stranger told them to cast their net once more
Putting it out on the starboard side before they came to shore.
Suddenly their net was filled with a miraculously large haul!
That is when John’s eyes were opened and to Peter he did call,
“It is the Lord!” Peter did not wait for them to row the boat
He hurriedly dressed himself, throwing on his outer coat
And jumped into the water to swim rapidly to shore.
Peter wasted no time, but was racing to His Lord.
