Commentary of the Gospell
Some of the apostles spend the night fishing, making a catch only as dawn breaks. Having assured their catch, Jesus, waiting on the shore, offers them breakfast. What could be more ordinary than a hard night’s work and a simple meal? Yet God is present in these ordinary moments.
Too often we struggle to recognize God’s presence in our lives because we are looking for grand miracles that overwhelm the senses. When the Red Sea doesn’t part and the water doesn’t become wine, we fear that God has abandoned us.
But God is always with us, often in the most ordinary aspects of our lives, if only we make the effort to notice. We can see God in the love of parent and child, the encouragement of a teacher, the taste of good food shared with dear friends, the gentle touch of a beloved’s hand. Keeping our eyes and hearts open, we will see God.
