He called out...

"Later Jesus appeared again to the disciples beside the Sea of Galilee. This is how it happened. Several of the disciples were there--Simon Peter, Thomas, Nathanael, the sons of Zebedee, and two other disciples.
Simon Peter said, "I'm going fishing."
"We'll come, too," they all said. So they went...
At dawn the disciples saw Jesus standing on the beach, but they couldn't see who he was. He called out..." (from John 21:1-5)

I agree with Maggie that Simon Peter gets a lot of negative spin for going back to fishing. Sometimes I find that when I've been fed one punchline for long enough it is hard to think of a more helpful alternative. Here's one:

"I don't find much solace in meditating on whether it was an indication of despair or bad faith that made Simon go back to his fishing nets. More to the point is what happened when he did: he was found by Jesus. Here's the moment of solace - when you are lost, and don't know what to do next, no matter whether you wait in the religious space for Jesus, or whether you go back to your everyday situation, he will find you there. Let's face it, most of the time we have no idea what the "right" thing to do is, let alone whether it has God's seal of approval. Most of the time we make the best decisions we can manage at the time, and get on with it. Some of the time we barely even make a decision, life just happens to us. But the point is that it's not up to us to find God, it's God who will find us. And his finding us doesnt' depend upon us being in the "right" place. Whether you make a good decision, a bad decision or just a humdrum everyday OK decision, wherever it lands you, He will find you there. And when he does, he will restore you, bless you, and give you your breakfast."
