"And when Simon Peter saw it, he
fell down at the feet of Jesus, saying, Lord, depart from me, for I am a sinful
man.For the astonishment came upon him, and all
that were with him, because of the catch of the fish which they had made.And likewise also of James and John, the sons
of Zebedee, who were companions of Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Fear not;
From now on you will be a fisher of men. " Luke 5: 8-10
It is interesting to see how JESUS CHRIST sees the sinner very differently from the religiosity placed on people's heads. Most people learned this way: "I am so sinful that I need to stay away from GOD." And, in this way, they continue in their sins and away from GOD. But JESUS CHRIST is very interested in the sinner. What's more, HE sees them very differently from what they themselves can see. The sinner sees himself far from GOD. But JESUS CHRIST sees them bringing them to Himself. The sinner sees himself as a sinner. But JESUS CHRIST sees them transformed and living a new history, fulfilling the divine purposes.The sinner sees himself in a much lower way. But JESUS CHRIST sees them with great value, important to Him, and the time to walk with Him. It is time for every sinner to look at JESUS CHRIST, to approach Him and to allow Himself to be transformed by Him. Peter was like this: a simple man, limited to his sinful condition. But he gave his life to JESUS CHRIST, began to live with him and was willing to be transformed by HIM. The old Peter was transformed into an apostle Peter. As it was with Peter, great things are prepared to happen in the lives of those who decide to give up sin to live with JESUS CHRIST. Living the way God sees me, of course, is the best!
