” WHILE I WAS FAINTING AWAY, I REMBERED THE LORD.” JONAH 2:7
Sometimes we have to hit rock bottom before we are ready to repent. We cannot get much lower than where Jonah ended up. He was trying his hardest to run away from God because he did not want to go to the city of Nineveh and preach to the people. He did not want to take the assignment the Lord had given him. Apparently, Jonah had forgotten that he could not hide from God. Our God is so gracious and loving that no matter how frail, clumsy, or how simple our prayer might be He still answers with his abundant forgiveness and mercy. Sometimes we do things that make us feel like we want to run from God. It doesn’t work. There is no place we can hide where He cannot find us. Dedicate each day to him and surrender to him always! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL SITUATIONS!
