For a whole lot of people they think if they run away from their problems or the situations that their presented with that all will be well in their lives..but guys none of us can ever outrun our problems for if we don’t deal with them in the way that we should they still are there and the problems and or situations and circumstances just go right with you..no matter how far you decide to run or go they still are there..kind of like Jonah..in the word of God the Lord kept bidding and calling for Jonah to go to Nineveh and preach to that city..but Jonah did not want to listen or obey the Lord..so Jonah went down to the city of Joppa..and there he found a ship going to Tarshish..so he paid the fair got on the ship and off he went..thinking I’m sure that he was going to run away from what the Lord had called him to do..but the word of God says that the Lord sent out a great wind and a mighty tempest on the sea..so all of the men begin to cry out to the Lord and Jonah he was in the back of the ship sleeping..so the men wake him up and are trying to understand what in the world is he doing..so they tell him to call on the Lord and pray..but in the midst of all that they cast lots to try to find out where this evil has come from..and the lot fell on Jonah..so the men begin to ask of him where do you come from..what is your occupation..who are your people..and so finally Jonah tells them I am a Hebrew and I fear the LORD, the God of heaven, which hath made the sea and the dry land..Then were the men exceedingly afraid, and said unto him, Why hast thou done this? For the men knew that he fled from the presence of the Lord, because he had told them…so the men ask of Jonah what shall we do unto thee to have the winds and sea to be calm for us?..and Jonah tells them to throw him over board and it all would seize for them..so they did just that..and there in that sea Jonah got swallowed up by a great big fish, and he was in the belly of that fish for three days and three nights..so Jonah prayed to the Lord and the Lord answered Jonah and the fish spit him out on dry land and there Jonah went on to Nineveh to preach just as the Lord had bidded him too..so long story short…Jonah had to go back and take care of what it was that he needed to do and take care of..he didn’t outrun the Lord..Jonah 1/2/3..just as you and I cannot outrun God..if the Lord is needing for you to do whatever it is just know that you will do it one way or another..and if there is things that need fixed and taken care of in your life..it’s best to go ahead and take care of them..for none of us can ever outrun our problems..for yes they will go with us..so let us take care of them things that need taking care of…and let us always bloom and grow where the Lord plants us..In Jesus’ name, I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
