Details to follow
Jon 3:1-5, 10/Ps 25:4-5, 6-7, 8-9 [4a]/
1 Cor 7:29-31/Mk 1:14-20
“So they left their father Zebedee in the boat
along with the hired men and followed him.”
What did Zebedee think about all of this? His
sons and his partners, James and John, suddenly
left their post and followed Jesus. So there he
stood in the boat with a crew of employees, but
not one of his sons. We can’t help but wonder
whether Zebedee was in favor of this promise
that his heirs would become “fishers of men.”
Most likely, this event was the cause of some
familial tension.
Throughout the Gospels, Jesus instructs us to
love and serve others for the love of God.
But the Lord also makes it clear that our
devotion to him is meant to trump our devotion
to anything—or anyone—else. For our part, we
are called to allow this divine allegiance to exist
in those we love, even when it means a sacrifice
for us as well. Parents for example, like Zebedee,
are called to encourage their children to follow
the Lord’s call. A son or daughter’s vocation to
religious life certainly exemplifies this kind of
sacrifice for a parent who might have had a
different plan in mind. But in truth every son
and daughter has a vocation from God and
parents have the opportunity to support and
assist their children as they seek to hear and
follow God’s special plan for their lives.
We don’t know for sure how Zebedee
responded to the vocation of his sons, but we
know that James and John were counted among
the Twelve Apostles and that their devotion and
dedication helped to spread the Gospel to the
ends of the earth. Regardless of what he might
have thought as he stood in that boat, we can be
quite sure that looking back now, Zebedee can
rejoice heartily in the choice of his sons to leave
their nets and follow Christ.
