Luke 5:1-11

TEXT:  Luke 5:1-11

INTRO:
Life often feels like a cycle of mundane routines - work, family responsibilities, and the occasional moment of joy or hardship. For many, the question looms: Is this all there is? Am I just meant to go through the motions, or is there something more? Simon Peter’s encounter with Jesus in Luke 5 shows us that in the midst of our ordinary lives, Jesus steps in to redefine everything. This passage reveals how an ordinary day of fishing turned into a life-altering moment, not because of Simon’s skills or plans, but because of Jesus’ presence and call. Through this encounter, we see that Jesus doesn’t just interrupt our lives; He transforms them, offering a purpose far greater than we could imagine. Today, we will explore how Jesus meets us in our daily routines, invites us to trust Him in uncertainty, and calls us to a mission that carries eternal significance.
