"But the LORD provided a great fish to swallow Jonah..." Jonah 1:17Have you ever felt "swallowed up" by the "big fish" in your life? I am doing a wonderful Bible study entitled, Jonah by Priscilla Shirer. And as we studied the other evening, we noticed that the Bible says that the LORD provided the great fish for Jonah. It wasn't a punishment. It was his salvation!
Maybe that big fish in your life that seems to be swallowing you up and keeping you from what you want to do and where you want to go is really your salvation.
I don't know about you, but it is so comforting knowing that when I am drowning in my own life choices, God will come along and save me from myself. It may be a big fish or something I don't readily recognize as His hand, but He will always be with me and protect me so that I can get back on the road to Ninevah!
