About This Quote
Jesus was a fisherman. He spent most of his time working on the water near the shores of Galilee. He taught people how to fish for answers and to follow him, since he showed them how to catch more fish (Matthew 4:19). You shouldn’t be afraid of following Jesus.
If you are following him, he will guide you down to the sea. If you are not following him, you might stay on dry land all your life. Then again, if you are following Jesus, he won’t let you stay dry land.
