Catholic Daily Readings and Reflection | Friday in the Octave of Easter | April 10, 2026
After the resurrection, after the appearances, after everything, they went back to fishing.
All night. Empty nets. The old life was not working anymore.
At dawn, a stranger on the shore told them to cast the net on the right side. One hundred fifty-three fish. The net should have torn but did not. And John recognized Him: It is the Lord.
Peter did not wait for the boat. He jumped in and swam to shore where Jesus was waiting with breakfast already made. Charcoal fire. Fish. Bread. He did not need their catch. He had already provided.
Today's reflection asks: what old life have you tried to return to? Where are you fishing all night and catching nothing?
