Peter and the Fish 8/4 Friday Faith

Peter had been at the fishing business all his life but he never had caught a fish with any silver in its mouth.  But the Master does not want us to reason things out -- for carnal reasoning will always land us in a bog of unbelief --- but just to obey.  "This is a hard job," Peter must have said, as he put the bait on his hook, "but since You told me to do it, I'll try," and he cast his line into the sea.  There were millions of fish in the sea, but every fish had to stand aside and leave that bait alone, and let that fish with the piece of money in its mouth come up and take it.
