Bring the boy here to Me

Bring the boy here to Me!

"Master, we've worked hard all night — and haven't caught anything!" Luke 5:5

"I brought him to Your disciples, but they could not heal him." Jesus replied, " Bring the boy here to Me! " Matthew 17:16-17 

When teachers have incorrigible scholars in their classes on whom they can make no impression, their discouragement and failure should lead them to bring them to Jesus, for He is yet able to take them and change them into noble beauty.

When troubled souls have sought in vain for comfort and help from the Church and from Christian ministers — they should go to Christ themselves, for He can comfort.

No matter in what we have been defeated, Christ stands ready to take our humiliation and turn it into victory.

The disciples toiled all night in vain — but, when they dropped their net at the Lord's bidding, great was their success.

So always, in the shadows of our human failure, He stands to give blessing.
