In this homily on the Fifth Sunday after the Epiphany, The Rev. Dr. James E. Taylor, Rector of St. George Episcopal Church says: One thing Jesus says in this teaching from the gospel of Luke has a real season of Epiphany insight: “Put out into the deep water.” Think about that for a moment. “Put out into the deep water.” When we are feeling inundated by the complications of life or are climbing that wall of worry, go deeper in prayer and seek Jesus even more. When you can’t figure out which way to go with a decision in your life, go deeper in your relationship with our Lord. When the tasks placed before you seem overwhelming, go deeper in your dependence on Christ. When you feel like you have nothing but disappointment to show for putting your best foot forward, seek to hear the voice of God even more. Persevere in the Lord.
