Something's Fishy Here....


I didn't notice this so much myself to start out the day, but in Church this morning both my daughter and son noticed that so far that morning, they had been hearing about FISH a lot! Before church, the kids were joking around calling each other fish names, just to mock each other - I know, I know..weird kids eh? *G*
When I got out of the shower this morning, my husband had on a hunting and FISHING show in the other room....then, the Gospel message today was about being FISHERS of men (and women)... which made Kasey and Kaine both start whispering & giggling about the fish references during the sermon time.

I didn't think much of it, until just awhile ago, we were watching some dance competition on TV and there was a girls dance group named "Fish and Chicks"... Kasey goes, "What the heck?.. another FISH reference!"... it was then that I realized I had gotten a craving for fish sticks with lemon juice today, and had eaten them for a late lunch and dinner, both! haha... so now I am left wondering...WHAT'S WITH THE FISH STUFF TODAY?? ..weird...*L* Maybe God is bringing these things to mind for a reason? Are we suppose to be fishers in some special way this coming week? Fr. Bill, in his sermon this morning, talked about us being BAIT ... that's an interesting way of looking at it too... we want to be the kind of "bait" that makes Jesus something people would want to inwardly digest and come to know more.


Anyway... maybe these fish references have just always been around and we are just open to "hearing" them more today ... “Who hath ears to hear, let him hear” (Matthew 13:9).
It's like that cell phone commercial where the person is saying..."Can you hear me now?"... Maybe God is saying that to us today, eh? *S*
