Breakfast with the Risen Lord

“But that night they caught nothing.”

“Friends, haven’t you any fish?”

“When they landed, they saw a fire of burning coals there
with fish on it, and some bread.”

“Bring some of the fish you have just caught.”

“Come and have breakfast.”

“Jesus came, took the bread and gave it to them, and did the
same with the fish.”

(Selections from John 21)

Jesus had been fishing.

Jesus had made or purchased bread.

Jesus started a fire and cleaned the fish.

Jesus cooked the bread and the fish.

Jesus invited the men to breakfast.

Jesus served them their breakfast.

This was the risen Christ. “None of the disciples dared ask
him, ‘Who are you?’ They knew it was the Lord.”

Isn’t this a wonderful picture of the risen Lord? He is
still a servant. We are to be like Him.
