Do you really want to go through that again?

Wednesday January 25th, Jonah 1: 10Then GOD spoke to the fish, and it vomited up Jonah on the seashore. 1Next, GOD spoke to Jonah a second time: 2"Up on your feet and on your way to the big city of Nineveh! Preach to them. They're in a bad way and I can't ignore it any longer." 3This time Jonah started off straight for Nineveh, obeying GOD's orders to the letter. Sometimes it takes an experience we can’t forget, even though we would like too, to get us going in the direction God wants us to go. It is not that we necessarily need these unforgettable experiences, but we do have a tendency to create some interesting predicaments for ourselves. God can work through them also. If we would just do what God wants us to do life would be a lot easier. But as we look back over our life, we see that God can even take our detours and turn them into ministry and a good story.
