FISHIN

SNIPPET

Keep thy hook always baited, for a fish lurks even in the most unlikely 

waters.  Ovid

Scripture

Afterward Jesus appeared again to his disciples, by 

the Sea of Galilee. It happened this way: 

Simon Peter, Thomas (also known as Didymus), 

Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, the sons of 

Zebedee, and two other disciples were together. “I’m 

going out to fish,” Simon Peter told them, and they 

said, “We’ll go with you.” So they went out and got 

into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.

Early in the morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but 

the disciples did not realize that it was Jesus.

He called out to them, “Friends, haven’t you any 

fish?”

“No,” they answered.

He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat 

and you will find some.” When they did, they were 

unable to haul the net in because of the large 

number of fish. John 21:1-6

I’m lost in her there holdin’ that pink rod and reel

She’s doin’ almost everything but sittin’ still

Talkin’ ‘bout her ballet shoes and training wheels

And her kittens

And she thinks we’re just fishin’

I say, “Daddy loves you, baby” one more time

She says, “I know. I think I got a bite.”

And all this laughin’, cryin, smilin’ dyin’ here inside’s

What I call, livin’

And she thinks we’re just fishin’ on the riverside

Throwin’ back what we could fry

Drownin’ worms and killin’ time

Nothin’ too ambitious

She ain’t even thinkin’ ‘bout

What’s really goin’ on right now

But I guarantee this memory’s a big’in

And she thinks we’re just fishin’

She’s already pretty, like her mama is

Gonna drive the boys all crazy

Give her daddy fits

And I better do this every chance I get

‘Cause time is tickin’

(Yeah it is)

And she thinks we’re just fishin’ on the riverside

Throwin’ back what we could fry

Drownin’ worms and killin’ time

Nothin’ too ambitious

She ain’t even thinkin’ ‘bout

What’s really goin’ on right now

But I guarantee this memory’s a big’in

And she thinks we’re just fishin’

She ain’t even thinkin’ ‘bout

What’s really goin’ on right now

But I guarantee this memory’s a big’in

And she thinks we’re just fishin’

Yeah, aww, she thinks we’re just fishin’

We ain’t only fishin’

(This ain’t about fishin’)

SENTENCE PRAYER

Father;

Help me to always keep my hook baited with love and gratefulness 

Help me to make time to waste on some lonely shore bank 

somewhere.

Amen
