A change in my thinking
not sitting on the shoreline
by my nets, mending, cutting bait
no longer standing
struggling in my comfort
stepping out and following the Lord
A time for fishing
moving beyond preparation
focused on my calling
to go and fish for me
Going out, casting my stones,
my starfish, messages in a bottle,
words of love, of saving
cast out into the seas
