FIFTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
We are called to be disciples, to sit at the feet of the
Master and to be taught and formed by Him. Then He sends
us out as apostles, to bring His word and love to others. We
are unworthy to be disciples and apostles, but the Lord still
calls us and makes us worthy. Isaiah said that he was a man
of unclean lips. Paul stated that he was not fit to be called an
apostle. Peter exclaimed that he was a sinful man. Despite
these admissions, the Lord called and sent them. “Send me.”
“By the grace of God I am what I am.” “At your command I
will lower the nets.” The Lord forms us, calls us, and sends
us.
