Jonah 2 - You Can Be Devoted And Still Miss The Boat

SCRIPTURE:

Jonah 2 (the entire chapter)

OBSERVATION:

It is interesting to note that while Jonah is fully devoted to God... he is so cold to the Lost and the perishing!

APPLICATION:

Just because I feel the fuzzies during my devotions, doesn't necessarily mean that I am following God!
His will is plain... that none should perish. I am to seek out and save the Lost!
Am I seeking? Could I even be bothered to look?
How much of my time and money is spent on the Lost?
Am I carrying God's heart?

PRAYER:

Dear Dad...
I don't want to spend my life thinking that I'm doing what pleases You only to find that I missed the boat. I know that the greatest worship I can give to You is seeing another person come to worship You!
I missed the boat again tonight... by not ringing my mate. Lord, please don't let me go through another day without dis-ease for the lost!
Give me your heart. Your priorities.
Amen
