"We may judge Jonah for running from God, but we often do the same thing. We flee from what the Father commands because we want to be in control of our lives and we want our lives to be comfortable. We may outright disobey, or we may take a more subtle route--avoiding Him and claiming ignorance of what He wants. But understand, neither strategy releases us from the responsibility of obeying Him, which is why He sends contrary circumstances to get us back on the right path."
-Charles Stanley
