As the morning sun arose on yet another splendid Easter Day
We heard a message using John twenty one from Wendy Tay
Some disciples had caught zero fish despite being out all night
Unbeknownst to them, Jesus was on shore at the break of light
“Friends, haven’t you any fish?” to the disciples He did call out
Per John fifteen, Jesus considered them friends without a doubt
By giving them a sense of purpose, God made His will known
Extreme compassion and empathy Jesus had once again shown
Jesus then instructed the disciples to cast the net out to the right
One hundred fifty three fish were caught, a reversal from the night
The disciples demonstrated obedience, in the text we clearly see
And thus overcame familiarity, self-reliance, and self-sufficiency
Even though He had built a fire; bread and fish He did prepare
Jesus asked the disciples to bring some fish to eat and share
So that the fruits of their labour together they could celebrate
Because they were part of the miracle that He did perpetuate
In summary, before we went to eat breakfast, Pastor Tay did say
We should empathise, show obedience, and fellowship each day
