Ever wonder why our instinctual reaction to God's instructions is to run in the opposite direction? Why, like Jonah, we often find ourselves turning away from God's guidance and heading towards a metaphorical Tarshish of our own? As we dissect Jonah's story, we uncover the deep-seated disobedience that lies not just in our actions, but in our hearts, as we often choose to turn a blind eye to God's clear instructions on how to live our lives, marking a downward spiral away from Him.
But, turning away from God or running is not the end of the story. It's about knowing God, not just about Him. It's about experiencing His unfathomable love, grace, and mercy. Through the lens of Abraham's story, we learn that knowing God's justice and compassion in our lives is what fosters trust in Him, even when we face demanding circumstances. As we look at the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ, we are reminded that trusting God, even in the face of death, is the way towards experiencing His grace. So, join us as we journey through these biblical narratives, praying for the wisdom to truly know God, experience His grace, and extend that same grace to others.
