What are the disciples to do with themselves now? They go back to what they knew, which in Peter’s case was fishing. After a long night they had caught nothing. Jesus, who they did not at first recognize, called out to them to try the right side of the boat. This they tried and the net was so full it could not be hauled into the boat. This was not a secret fishing trick of Jesus’. It was a miracle wrought by the power of God. Many people want to apply this passage in various ways, but the correct application is that we need to obey Jesus in all areas of our life as Lord.
