Has God ever asked you to do something that hasn't made sense? Luke 4-5

Luke 5:5 (NASBStr)

Simon answered and said, “ Master, we worked hard all night and caught nothing, but I will do as You say and let down the nets.”

Obedience in faith trumps feelings of our flesh and even the empirical data of our senses!   Simon Peter and his crew were seasoned fishermen.   They understood the long nights of their trade and the "luck" that often came with it.   Finding fish with no technology was an art more than a science.  You had to know your favorite fishing hole.   In the story of Luke 5 we see that Simon and the others had toiled all night and were actually cleaning their nets when Jesus came by and asked to use their boat as a public speaking platform.   Simon and the fishermen may have continued to clean their nets as Jesus spoke.  Maybe they became interested and took seats in the front.  Maybe they wandered through the growing crowd and let everyone know that it was their boat used by Jesus.   After the speaking gig was complete, Jesus told them to get back into the boat and cast their nets again.  These would be the nets they just cleaned tossed into the "empty" lake they were just skunked by after doing so all night long.   Their expertise, their eyes, their work ethic, their combined physical stamina, their lack of knowledge of who Jesus even was (remember, He was a carpenter by trade) all spoke that they should not put their nets back into the water.    Yet, we see Peter's words above.    God had commanded them and they obeyed.   The result, was a miracle.  More importantly, however, the result was men repenting and joining Jesus in His ministry.   Any miracle follows the same approach.       Moses could have told God about the physics behind the rock.   He could have told God that water has never come out of a rock.   Yet, water did.    When asked to cross the Red Sea, Moses and the people could tell God this just isn't done.  They had watched that river for centuries and it never stopped flowing.  Yet, it did.   Obedience in faith trumps feelings of our flesh and even the empirical data of our senses!!
