This was the first prayer used by James Martin’s Together on Retreat. I read and meditated on this at the train station. Not quite the silent meditation that Father Martin might have hoped, but I’ve found the spiritual in the oddest of places. My reflections on his chosen prayers (and my own choices) won’t be posted yet. They have yet to be written.

As Jesus passed along the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the sea—for they were fishermen. And Jesus said to them, “Follow me and I will make you fish for people.” And immediately they left their nets and followed him. As he went a little farther, he saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John, who were in their boat mending the nets. Immediately he called them; and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men, and followed him.
