I notice in the text that James, the son
of Zebedee, and John, his brother,
were busy not mending somebody
else's nets,, but mending their own
nets, and I rather think that we who
are engaged in Christian work in this
opening century will require all our
spare time to mend our own nets. God
help us in the important duty!
