Today’s narrative paints the picture of a frustrated group of people who have worked all day and done all they could and have failed.  The have failed at their work which means that they and their families are at risk of not having anything to eat and not having anywhere to live.  They have failed, they have accepted that they have failed and they are preparing to go home to their families with nothing.

Then Jesus tells Simon Peter to try again.  Simon knows that there is no point to this.  He has proven it.

But he has faith enough in Jesus, even though he is doubtful, to be obedient to Him and casts his net out again to catch fish.

So what happened?
