Afterward
Jesus appeared again to his disciples, by the Sea of Galilee.
- John 21:1a (NIV)
I love this moment.
Because after everything—the cross, the empty tomb, the confusion, the fear—you might expect something big. Something loud. Something unmistakably powerful.
But instead… we find the disciples back at the water. Fishing.
Back to what they knew. Back to the ordinary rhythm of life.
And that’s where Jesus meets them.
Not in a temple. Not in a crowd. Not in some grand, overwhelming moment.
But in the middle of their routine.
I think sometimes we expect the same. We look for God in the big moments—the breakthroughs, the answered prayers, the mountaintop experiences.
But what if He’s just as present in the everyday?
In the quiet mornings.
In the drive to work.
In the laundry, the errands, the small conversations.
The risen Jesus didn’t just appear once and disappear. He kept showing up. He kept meeting His people right where they were.
And He still does.
He is still moving—still working, still speaking, still present in ways we might miss if we’re only looking for something extraordinary.
Sometimes, He meets us right in the middle of our ordinary day… and reminds us that He was there all along.
