Ain't nobody got time for that!
GOD has compassion - for all HIS creation, especially HIS image bearers. This episode we look at compassion through the eyes of GOD in the book of Jonah. In the Book of Jonah we see the unfathomable depth of GOD'S compassion and at the same time examine how shallow are is. This episode is a good heart check to see where you land in regards to how you value mankind and all of GOD'S creation. Glory to GOD! Worthy is the LAMB!
1 But it greatly displeased Jonah and he became angry.
2 He prayed to the LORD and said, “Please LORD, was not this what I said while I was still in my own country? Therefore in order to forestall this I fled to Tarshish, for I knew that You are a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness, and one who relents concerning calamity.
3 “Therefore now, O LORD, please take my life from me, for death is better to me than life.”
4 The LORD said, “Do you have good reason to be angry?”
(Jonah 4:1–4)
