God takes men as they are, and educates them for His service, if they will yield themselves to Him.
After toiling all night without success, it seemed hopeless to cast the net by day; but Jesus had given the command, and love for their Master moved the disciples to obey. Simon and his brother together let down the net. As they attempted to draw it in, so great was the quantity of fish enclosed that it began to break. They were obliged to summon James and John to their aid. When the catch was secured, both the boats were so heavily laden that they were in danger of sinking.
This miracle, above any other he had ever witnessed, was to him a manifestation of divine power. While his companions were securing the contents of the net, Peter fell at the Saviour's feet, exclaiming, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord. Luke 5:8
Humanity, with its weakness and sin, was brought in contrast with the perfection of divinity, and he felt altogether deficient and unholy. Thus it has been with all who have been granted a view of God's greatness and majesty.
