As he was walking by the Sea of Galilee, Jesus saw two brothers, Simon who is called Peter, and his brother Andrew, casting a net into the sea; they were fishermen.He said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.* At once they left their nets and followed him.What was the draw that made these men follow Jesus then and there? Perhaps it was the relationship with Christ that can only be experienced once one leaves behind one life for a life dedicated to Him. Consider a vocation to the priesthood or religious life.
