And they immediately left their nets and went after Him.
This verse reveals the speed and simplicity of the first disciples’ obedience. They do not delay, they do not bargain with the Lord’s call, and they do not cling to their former security. The nets symbolize their profession, their daily life, and everything they could rely on according to the flesh. But the voice of Christ became weightier for them than anything visible. This is an example of true faith, which not only hears the Lord’s call, but also responds to it decisively and with the whole heart.
