"Then the mariners were afraid; and every man cried out to his god, and threw the cargo that was in the ship into the sea, to lighten the load. But Jonah had gone down into the lowest part of the ship, had lain down, and was fast asleep."
Jonah 1:5
What's with Jonah? He is asleep while the heathen sailors were struggling to keep the ship afloat. Sounds like some Christians I know. The ship is going down and they are oblivious to the situation. Yes, there is a place of resting in the Lord, but that doesn't mean we are asleep in our security while the rest of humanity – crying out to their god – are perishing. Lord, wake us up!!!
Today's Thought: Resting in the Lord does not mean being oblivious to the plight of humanity.
Have an "awake" day. Love you.
