"You pry from my fingers everything that I hold dear,
just to make me yours, just to draw me near.
I don't want to let go. It's my comfort that I seek.
All that I know is God you want all of me". EDW
Are you holding onto things that God wants to take from you for your own good?
Will you let go?
Or will you be another Jonah??
It took Jonah being on a boat and being thrown over to realize that what God wanted from him he had to give. Jonah had to go to the people that had ridiculed HIS people for generations. It was a sacrifice for him. All God wanted was his obedience.
In the belly of the fish Jonah finally gives up and decides to do what God has called him to do.
"But I will sacrifice to You with the voice of thanksgiving. That which I have vowed I will pay. Salvation is from the Lord". Jonah 2:9
Are you a Jonah?
Take a moment and think about it. Then spend time reflecting on what God is doing in your life.
