Jonah 6

 I’ve been a lot like Jonah, criticizing those who I think are beyond repentance  but little do I know what God is doing beyond our vision.  I’m all for people coming to Christ, but am I truly praying that this will happen?  I’m so guilty of not praying for our leaders and for our culture to repent in submission to Hod’s call on our lives.  As the election approaches, may God be lifted up and honored.  May He over ride my lack of faithfulness in praying.  

“Many people will profess faithfulness, but few will demonstrate it. The virtue of faithfulness is often costly, and few people are willing to pay the price. But for the godly person, faithfulness is an absolutely essential quality of his character, regardless of what it might cost.” - Jerry Bridges, The Practice of Godliness
