Today’s Reading: Luke 5

(Please read Luke 5: 1 – 39 and listen to what the Lord Jesus Christ would like to tell you before reading my Spiritual Journal below. If you would like to learn a simple and good way of Daily Devotion method please read my “Count Down 5” from this blog. You may click this link directly for the method: Subject Shifting Devotion.pdf . (You may begin with a song to praise the Lord and complete you devotion by singing another praise song.)

Then Jesus said to Simon, “Don’t be afraid; from now on you will catch men.” Luke 5: 10

We often say, “Catch you later.” Today Jesus led me to think of “Catch Jesus now”!

All our life has been thinking of how to catch more “fish”. For a businessman, fishes are stocks, money, fame… For a pastor, fish are new converts. If we can catch every moment to be with Jesus, then we know how to catch fish and experience the joy of catching fish. If we can catch up with Jesus, then we can walk with Jesus daily in a pace that we will never weary. Have you heard of “Holy Spirit is to be caught and not taught”?


Dear Lord Jesus,

Help us to catch you up before thinking of catching anything. For we are not going to catch anything without catching you. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
