Mending my Nets by Ben Macnair

There are no fish today,

so I am mending my nets.

Jesus wants me to go with him,

and become a Fisher of Men.

 

He said I could spread his words,

by action and by deeds,

but then he said that a

Prophet is never known in his own time.

 

I am mending my nets,

joining pieces of nothing

to other pieces of nothing.

Jesus said my job with him

would be the same,

going from one person with no faith,

to another,

and tell them about Faith.

 

Faith in would could be,

Hope in what isn’t,

Jesus said that these things are important,

but I am a Fisherman,

and if I cannot attract Fish to my nets,

how can I attract men to my words?

 

So, I will mend my nets,

and hope for better fishing tomorrow.
