After this, Jesus revealed himself to the disciples by the Lake of Tiberias. He appeared to them in this way: Simon Peter, Thomas who was called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee and two other disciples were together; and Simon Peter said to them, “I’m going fishing.” They replied, “We will come with you.” And they went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.

When the sun came up, Jesus was standing on the shore, but the disciples did not know that it was Jesus. Jesus called out, “Friends, have you anything to eat?” They answered, “Nothing.” Then he said to them, “Throw the net on the right side of the boat and you will find something.” When they had lowered the net, they were not able to pull it in because of the great number of fish.

Then the disciple Jesus loved said to Peter, “It’s the Lord!” At these words, “It’s the Lord!” Simon Peter put on his clothes, for he was stripped for work, and jumped into the water. The other disciples came in the boat, dragging the net full of fish; they were not far from land, about a hundred meters.

When they landed, they saw a charcoal fire with fish on it, and some bread. Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the fish you’ve just caught.” So Simon Peter climbed into the boat and pulled the net to shore. It was full of big fish—one hundred and fifty-three—but, in spite of this, the net was not torn.

Jesus said to them, “Come and have breakfast.” And not one of the disciples dared to ask him, “Who are you?” for they knew it was the Lord. Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and he did the same with the fish.

This was the third time that Jesus revealed himself to his disciples after rising from the dead.

Repleksiyon nako:

Nan bata pa ako, usahay maka-iban ako sa mga mamalingay nan isda sa danaw.

Kon waya’y kuha sa baling, maguol gajud an mga mangingisda kay waya ma’y madaya para sa pamilya sanan mahibaligja.

Pero dinhi sa ato Ebanghelyo kuman, bagan imposible na waya’y ila kuha sa baling pero sa sugo ni Jesus (waya anay nila hikilay’i si Lord sa sugod) na ihuyog pag-utro an ila baling, duro an ila nakuha.

Nan in-imbita na ni Jesus sila para mamahaw, waya na’y nangahas na mangutana Dija ka nahibayo na man sila na Sija gajud an ila nakasalamuha.

Kita, dili na sab kinahanglan na mangutana pa kita kon sin-o Sija kay imperatibo na kilaya na gajud nato an ato Lord sa kada gutlo nan ato mga kinabuhi.
