Topic: Don't Pity Jonah!
Word: Jonah 1:15 NLT
Then the sailors picked Jonah up and threw him into the raging sea, and the storm stopped at once!
Here's My Take:
Intro:
We all know the story of Jonah in the Bible as we had read. The man Jonah has so much significance, as we shall see at the course of this topic. When you hear the word Jonah, what comes into your mind? Some will have the picture of a man that ran away from God. While some the picture of one swallowed by fish.
I had someone argue that "how can a fish swallow a person? That it's not impossible. Then I believe that another person will argue how someone can be inside a fish stomach and stay alive for three days?" Well that's by the way. So what comes into your mind, at the mention of Jonah.
Or are you among those that said it's not a true story, but a fictional character? What comes into your mind, or are you part of those that are confused between Jonah and fish, who swallowed who? Something must come into your mind when you hear that name Jonah is mentioned. And come to think of it, I haven't heard of anyone answering Jonah. Because of the role he played.
Conclusion:
Jonah was a man that no one should pity. Because he can disappoint you when all your hope is built on him. So whatever comes into your mind when you remember/meet/hear the voice a person, is how you see that person.
Song:
Draw me close to You
Never let me go
I lay it all down again
To hear You say that I'm Your friend
You are my desire
No one else will do
'Cause nothing else can take Your place
To feel the warmth of Your embrace
Help me find the way, bring me back to You
You're all I want
You're all I've ever needed
You're all I want
Help me know You are near
Prayer:
Lord, give us the right mindset to always see the good part of people than their faults... Amen.
