TRY AGAIN

Third Sunday of Easter John 21:1-19 When Jesus died some of his disciples went back to their old ways of living that is fishing again. However, after a long break they caught nothing. Despite having tried their best, they caught nothing that night. Perhaps they tried everything that whole night but still not even one single fish were strayed in their net. Failure! It was a frustrated night. I think we can sympathize with these disciples because there are moments in our life that we tried so hard but we too failed. There are times in our life that we do our best to fix family issues but we too failed. Perhaps some of us were discouraged and because of all these failures were tempted to stop. We tried to change our bad habits but we ended up doing the same addictions. Hey, my friends the gospel for today is telling us this message: TRY AGAIN. TRY ONE MORE TIME: “Cast the net over to the right side of the boat and you will find something.” Friends, let me tell you this: your dreams does not have expiration date. You have to push beyond every limitation to achieve your dreams. TRY AGAIN. Give yourself another chance. If we ask the Lord and we found no reply, ASK AGAIN. If we seek and we don’t find it, SEARCH AGAIN. If we knock the door and nobody is opening it, KNOCK AGAIN. Don’t give up because great and amazing things take time. When something in our life does not work well maybe its a relationship, a business, career or spiritual journey, NEVER SURRENDER. TRY ONE MORE TIME! When life puts you in a tough situations, do not say why me but say try me. Never be afraid to fail. Be afraid not to try. Try and fail but never fail to try. Failure does not mean the game is over. It means try again with another experience. Life does not require that we be the best. It only ask us to try our best. Friends, always listen to Jesus and you will be filled with abundance. Blessings Fr. Jhack
