John 21:3. Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a fishing. They say unto him, We also go with thee.
Their Master had told them to wait, but they could not wait. Surely when they were in Galilee by his command, they might have trusted him to supply their needs; but their faith was slack, so Peter said, "I go a fishing," and the others were much of the same mind; waiting had become weary work, as it often does with our faint hearts, so they said, "We also go with thee."
John 21:3. They went forth, and entered into a ship immediately; and that night they caught nothing.
As is generally the case with us in our will-work and will-worship When we are not guided of God, but go entirely according to our own mind and will it will be thus with us also. Men attempt some business speculation without asking guidance of God, and they make a miserable failure of it, so that it might be written of them as of the disciples, "That night they caught nothing."
