" 'Those who regard worthless idols forsake their own Mercy. But I will sacrifice to You with the voice of thanksgiving. I will pay what I have vowed. Salvation is of the LORD.' "
Jonah 2:8-9
The change in Jonah's outlook is demonstrated by thanksgiving. It is not easy to be thankful in the fish's belly, surrounded by darkness and the stench of rot with seaweed wrapped around your head. But in the dark times, there is peace in the soul when faith in God's salvation and deliverance is renewed. That's why it is so important to give thanks in everything (I Thessalonians 5:18). It is an affirmation of my trust in God's faithfulness.
Today's Thought: Thankfulness in the hard times is a witness to faith in a faithful God.
Have a thankful day. Love you.
