Once More

I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Monday morning, the 2nd of March, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

We start in the Gospel of Luke 5:5:

“But Simon answered and said to Him, “Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net.” 

Then we know what happened after that. He caught so many fish that the net was breaking, and he had to call the other disciples to help him pull in a massive catch. 

Then we go to Galatians 6:9:

“And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.” 

Once more, once more - you say, “I can’t.”  You can and you must. Cast it out once more, cast that net out. “But we have tried everything, and it is not working." “Once more”, the Lord said to the disciples. They said, “We have been fishing all night. He said, “Once more.”

Remember the story, I think I have told it to you maybe a few years ago, about the Scottish King, Robert the Bruce. He was getting a terrible hiding from the English, and he was hiding in a cave. He was just about all done. He had tried everything, and he sat in that cave, and he saw a spider. This spider was trying to swing across the mouth of the cave from one side to the other, and he watched it. It tried once, it failed, it tried twice, it failed, it tried three times and it failed. It kept doing it and eventually got to the other side. That Scottish King went outside, he rallied his troops, and he won the battle.

I want to say to you today, I don’t know what it is, maybe it is healing that you are looking for for your body. Maybe it’s a relationship. You say, “I just can’t do any more.” Once more, go and see them once more, cast your net out once more. That crop that I planted, nothing is coming up. Plant again. Those animals that I am trusting for, for healing, just keep on trusting God and He will see you through.

Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day.
Goodbye.
