A Big Fish and the Really Big Compassion of God

Jonah 1

Jonah reminds us that God loves all people and desires to show compassion and mercy to everyone in response to repentance.

 

God invites us to know and to daily live in His compassion for us so that we can readily share it with our neighbors and enemies alike.

Who are YOUR NINEVITES?

As Jesus followers, our love of country and commitment to its ideals should never get in the way of our worship of God and obedience to Him.

The wonder of God’s compassion is that, unlike ours, His compassion is not quenched by anger.

In our relationship with God, selective listening combined with selective obedience lands us in very difficult places.

As Jesus followers, we must never abandon our prophetic voice.  But if we do not speak from a compassionate heart, our words will ring hollow.

 

 Let us never lose sight of the compassion God has for each one of us, as well as the compassion He has for every person in the world!

Exodus 34:6-7

2 Kings 14:23-25

Genesis 12:1-3

2 Corinthians 5:18-19

Isaiah 30:18

As Jesus followers, we must never abandon our prophetic voice.  But if we do not speak from a compassionate heart, our words will ring hollow.
