"Breakfast is Ready"
John 21:1-14
Guest Speaker, Matt Sigler, SPU Seminary
21 Afterward Jesus appeared again to his disciples, by the Sea of
Galilee.[a]
It happened this way: 2
Simon Peter, Thomas (also known
as Didymus[b]
), Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee,
and two other disciples were together. 3
“I’m going out to fish,”
Simon Peter told them, and they said, “We’ll go with you.” So they
went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.
4
Early in the morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but the disciples did
not realize that it was Jesus.
5
He called out to them, “Friends, haven’t you any fish?”
“No,” they answered.
6
He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will
find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in
because of the large number of fish.
7
Then the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord!”
As soon as Simon Peter heard him say, “It is the Lord,” he wrapped
his outer garment around him (for he had taken it off) and jumped
into the water. 8
The other disciples followed in the boat, towing the
2. net full of fish, for they were not far from shore, about a hundred
yards.[c] 9
When they landed, they saw a fire of burning coals there
with fish on it, and some bread.
10
Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the fish you have just caught.”
11
So Simon Peter climbed back into the boat and dragged the net
ashore. It was full of large fish, 153, but even with so many the net
was not torn. 12
Jesus said to them, “Come and have breakfast.”
None of the disciples dared ask him, “Who are you?” They knew it
was the Lord. 13
Jesus came, took the bread and gave it to them, and
did the same with the fish. 14
This was now the third time Jesus
appeared to his disciples after he was raised from the dead.
This passage from John illustrates three things about Jesus.
First, it affirms that he is all-knowing, and in control of the
universe. He knew where the fish were.
Second, it illustrates that Jesus, the creator of the universe, is still
involved with the mundane, ordinary elements of our lives. Like
breakfast.
Third, it points out that He wants to have relationship with us, by
inviting us to contribute to the occasion as he prepares a meal for us.
