Dad's Ramblings -- Walking the Talk

"So he said to them, 'I am a Hebrew, and I fear the LORD, the God of heaven, who made the sea and the dry land.' "
 
                                                                          Jonah 1:9
Jonah and I are a lot alike. Jonah's confession and the way he lived were inconsistent. To say he feared God – the Creator – and then live in disobedience demonstrates the gap between "talking the walk and walking the talk." How much like me. I do love and fear the Lord, the Creator and God of heaven.  But my life is filled with inconsistencies.  There are a lot of times my witness does not match my actions.  I'm so thankful for the grace of God.
 
Today's Thought: Actions need to match speech.
 
Have a consistent day. Love you.
