Peter has more than one call story.  He is first called at the bed of his dying Mother in Law; then here on the water in his boat; when he is out on the water and Jesus is walking toward him; and lastly, following the crucifixion and resurrection, there on the beach when Jesus called him again.   Jesus is calling you too!
