Jonah 1:10 The sailors were terrified when they heard this, for he had already told them he was running away from the Lord. “Oh, why did you do it?” they groaned.
God said Ninevah, and Jonah said....nope.... What is it that you are running from that GOD desires you to do for His glory? By no stretch would I dare make the task that God was calling Jonah to small, but nothing He asks us to do...is small, or that it has small implications. Just think sharing the Gospel is huge...we don't have any idea of how many lives it will affect from sharing it with just one. Whole households, and nations have been affected because of the work of one person. We don't know anything about the relationship that the men on the ship had with God, but they knew enough that they groaned when they realized Jonah had ran from Him. Do you appear as crazy as Jonah to your friends, your family, and or co-workers because they realize you too, are running from GOD?
TODAY is Friday, and we can run many directions over the next few days before Monday, the question is which one will you choose? Running to GOD, with GOD, or AWAY from GOD? Running to GOD is a great place to start. Running with GOD is even greater. Running away is heartbreaking, expensive...and is really hard. I hope you choose right! LGLP
