Brothers' Bread Episode 23: This Too Will Pass

<p>“May it be good or bad things in life, &nbsp;just remember that this too will pass.” - Br. Bong Servando FSC</p> <p><strong>Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time <br> Reading from Luke 5:1-11</strong></p> <p>While the crowd was pressing in on Jesus and listening&nbsp;to the word of God,<br> he was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret.<br> He saw two boats there alongside the lake;<br> the fishermen had disembarked and were washing their nets.<br> Getting into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon,<br> he asked him to put out a short distance from the shore.<br> Then he sat down and taught the crowds from the boat.<br> After he had finished speaking, he said to Simon,<br> “Put out into deep water and lower your nets for a catch.”<br> Simon said in reply,<br> “Master, we have worked hard all night and have caught nothing,<br> but at your command I will lower the nets.”<br> When they had done this, they caught a great number of fish<br> and their nets were tearing.<br> They signaled to their partners in the other boat<br> to come to help them.&nbsp;<br> They came and filled both boats<br> so that the boats were in danger of sinking.<br> When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at the knees of Jesus and said,<br> “Depart from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man.”<br> For astonishment at the catch of fish they had made seized him<br> and all those with him,<br> and likewise James and John, the sons of Zebedee,<br> who were partners of Simon.<br> Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid;<br> from now on you will be catching men.”<br> When they brought their boats to the shore,<br> they left everything and followed him.</p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/yesbro">#YesBro</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/brothersbread">#BrothersBread</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/delasalleph">#DeLaSallePH</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/dlsbrothersph">#DLSBrothersPH</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/fscvocations">#FSCvocations</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/sundayreflection
