Daily Bible Reading – April 2020 God’s Life-Giving Word Of HopeSýnishorn
April 17
Introduction
While seven of the disciples are fishing, Jesus appears to them on the shoreline and shares a meal with them. According to John’s Gospel, it is the third time he appeared to the disciples after his resurrection.
Today’s Scripture: John 21:10
Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the fish you have caught.”
Today’s Reading
John 21:1-14
Reflect
When the disciples were fishing, why didn’t they recognize that it was Jesus standing at the water’s edge? What did Jesus tell them to do? When did Peter realize that the man on the shore was Jesus? How is Jesus’s presence recognized today?
Pray
Lord Jesus, I know you are with me every day. May my love for you increase more and more each day as I seek to serve you and reflect your saving love. Amen.
Prayer Concern

Tomorrow’s Reading
