From inside the fish Jonah prayed to the Lord his God. He said: "In my distress I called to the Lord...I called for help...  You hurled me into the depths, into the very heart of the seas, and the currents swirled about me...I said, I have been banished from your sight; yet I will look again toward your holy temple. Jonah 2:1-4 NIV Jonah was in a tough place. Out of his depth (lol) - but he was in a place that he'd had no experience of. He was in real trouble, fearful...upset...lost...without hope...yet...his cry continued to be to God. Yet he turned to Him Even when it seemed God had turned his back. Yet. If you feel like Jonah today, do what Jonah did and cry out to Him. Even if it seems God has turned his back... #lessonsfromJonah #weareallJonah

The Lord gave this message to Jonah son of Amittai: Get up and go to the great city of Nineveh... But Jonah got up and went in the opposite direction to get away from the Lord... He bought a ticket and went on board, hoping to escape from the Lord by sailing to Tarshish. Jonah 1:1-3 NLT Ever been called by God to go? Jonah had a big C Call, to go and preach, to be a missionary in a really hard place, but I've had a few small c calls... like to change my attitude towards someone. To look out for the needs of others. To not be so grumpy Or what about to be holy, not to gossip...to be kind...to give...to forgive Whatever it is, when God calls, better to go with Him than the other way...when you want to go left & He calls you to go right...go right #weareallJonah #lessonsfromJonah
