Matthew 4:18-20 While walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon (who is called Peter) and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen. And he said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” Immediately they left their nets and followed him.

God can call anyone, no matter their background, for His purpose. Paul was a simple fisherman. He was originally from Betsaida, but moved to Capernaum at some point in his life. His father was Jonah, and he had a brother, Andrew. At some point he got married, because he has a mother in law. His wife is never mentioned but 1 Corinthians 9:5 points to his wife travelling with him. Peter didn’t have a high education or elevated social status. But he was chosen by Jesus to be one of the twelve disciples

Question: How would you respond if God asked you to step away from what’s comfortable to follow His calling?
