From now on you will be catching men alive.—Luke 5:10.

 

The disciple Peter learned to love being a fisher of men. And with Jehovah’s backing, Peter became very good at that work. (Acts 2:14, 41) We preach because we love Jehovah; that is our primary motivation for doing this work. Our love for Jehovah can help us to overcome any feelings of inadequacy. When Jesus invited Peter to become a fisher of men, he told him: “Stop being afraid.” (Luke 5:8-11) Peter was not gripped by fear of what might happen if he became a disciple. Rather, he was astonished at the miraculous catch of fish that Jesus had just given the men, and Peter felt unworthy of being asked to work with Jesus. On the other hand, you may feel overwhelmed when you realize what is involved in being a disciple of Christ. If so, strengthen your love for Jehovah, Jesus, and your neighbor, and you will be motivated to accept Jesus’ invitation to become a fisher of men.—Matt. 22:37, 39; John 14:15. w20.09 3 ¶4-5

You can't walk with God while holding hands with the Devil.
