20100801: The F-I-S-H spa experience!

Today my niece Charlotte treated me a an ever first fish spa experience! It was a pretty expensive 15-minute nimbling and ticklish experience!

Had just done the bread experience and now going thr0ugh a fish experience!
F-I-S-H!!!

1. First Disciples:-
Jesus called his first disciples, Peter, Andrew, James and John in Galilee as he started his ministry. All the first 4 of them were fishermen! And we too are supposed to be fishers of men and make our beautiful cleansed feet be used for the extension of His kingdom of preaching the Good news!

2. IF Question -Inquiry:- Luke 11:11 "If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?" Oh what a wonderful kind-hearted Father we have!

3. Supernatural Provisions:-
The bible records the miracle feeding of the thousands using only 5 loaves of bread and 2 fish, or 7 loaves and several fish. The coin in the fish mouth too speaks of the timely provision by Jehovah Jireh! (Seems to me that the diet of those people during Jesus' time was pretty healthy - BREAD & FISH, bread & fish....Fillet-O-Fish Burger!)

4. Honouring Jesus
Jonah was gobbled up by a big fish for 3 days 3 nites. It reminded me of Matt 12:38-42. "Jesus answered the pharisees that a wicked an adulteress generation asked for a miraculous sign! But none will be given it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. For as Jonah was 3 days 3 nights in the belly of a huge fish, so will the Son of Man will be 3 days & 3 nights in the heart of the earth. The men of Ninevah will stand up at the judgement with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now one greater than Jonah is here. The Queen of the South will rise at the judgement with this generation and condemn it; for she came from the ends of the earth to listen to Soloman's widsom and now one greater than Soloman is here" Who is the one greater who is here?? Jesus Himself declared as the Bread of Life. He is also our greatest mentor in helping us to be better 'Fisher of men" Hence to God be the glory! Hosanna to the King of kings - Jesus! Lift Him higher and He will draw all men. He shall increase and we shall decrease.

Thinking of a fishing retreat or spa? It would surely rejuvenate you up indeed! Fishing is serious and can be yet fun! Being tickled by a school of more than 50 little fishes was indeed rather therapeutic - squirmish experience indeed!
