For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.—Romans 3:23–24 (NIV)

The Reluctant Prophet
But Jonah rose to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the Lord. He went down to Joppa and found a ship going to Tarshish. So he paid the fare and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish, away from the presence of the Lord.—Jonah 1:3 (ESV)
Jonah tried to escape the Lord’s calling, but God pursued him and used him to bring about an incredible transformation in the city of Nineveh. When you feel reluctant to follow His direction, remember that His plans are for your good and His glory.
Heavenly Father, give me the courage to follow Your calling, knowing that You will guide me every step of the way.
