Jonah, The Reluctant Prophet


"True spirituality is not in hearing from God, but in doing what He says. Jonah was discerning enough to know that he heard from God, but not discerning enough to obey." - Curt Dalaba

Hi Anne,
I have been thinking about this very thing for a few days. Thanks for another reminder. We must obey Him and also be discerning. I'm glad to see your back at writing again!

Thanks, Julie. The pictures are from our vacation this summer in beautiful Michigan. :-)

Jonah is such a "real" prophet. I love that book of the Bible because it shows that even spiritually mature people struggle with obedience at times. :)

By the way, its been awhile since I've been here. I like the new color scheme! Also, I joined your denomination about a year ago and even attended "Conversations '08" in Phoenix last year with Beth Grant.
