This last weekend I went to a Dnow at a local church and the first night the preacher spoke from Jonah. Now I grew up on church and the story of Jonah is the story everyone knows, but this preacher opened my eyes to a whole new meaning of Jonah's story. I remember when hearing the story of Jonah thinking " man I would never do that" , but I realized that I do exactly what Jonah did every single day. I think that my plan is better than God's, I think that God doesn't know best all the time. Instead of doing what the bible says I follow the world because it's convenient. Jonah disobeyed God because his mission seemed impossible; and I do that everyday, I don't honor my parents or I lie or say something mean. The story of Jonah shows us how if we follow God's plan we could skip the heart ache and be could live the amazing life God had planned for us. God has the perfect plan for us and if we follow him we can live a fulfilling and joyful life.
