Reading: Luke 5:6-7; Galatians 6:9

Devotional: "When they had done this"—the miracle waited on the other side of obedience. The lake hadn't changed, the boat remained the same, but Peter's willingness to act on Jesus' word positioned him for overflow. God's blessings often exceed our capacity to contain them, requiring community to help manage the abundance. Notice: the same water that yielded nothing all night produced more than two boats could hold when Jesus spoke. Your barren season doesn't indicate God's absence; sometimes He's preparing you to handle what you couldn't have managed before. Delayed harvest isn't denied harvest. Keep sowing in obedience. The nets may feel heavy with disappointment now, but they're being prepared for a catch that will require help to bring in.
