Jeremy good message
and quite relevant for today God is still looking at our hearts
and motives for serving him or are we serving our own agenda as Jonah was.He did nt feel compassionate towards his enemies
and who could blame him they had cruelly killed many Jews it was a question of life or death to his own people.The Jewish
nation was no more deserving of Gods grace than the other
nations that is revealed by sending Jonah to preach a message of hope
and life.Ultimately God calls all by faith in him
and is willing to be merciful to all
nations and peoples that do not not deserve it just like us it is by grace that we all are forgiven.I am pleased that God is sovereign
and knows whats best he is merciful to us.Our human nature is that it is better to kill our enemies before they can kill us
and that is essentially Jonahs message that is why he struggled to be obedient to Gods will.Gods message is to forgive those that trespass against us
and show mercy.Its complicated
and it is natural to protect ourselves
and our families from those who would seek to destroy them but ultimately its about trusting God with everything easier said than done.If it comes to a choice we will have to trust God
and ask for his strength because we cant do it in ours.As Christ laid
down his life for us are we ready to lay our lives
and the lives of our families as a sacrifice for him.To me that is where the story of Jonah is leading to we have the choice to fight our enemies or to love them as God loves them.brentnz
