But for now, its Jonah because like him, I am avoiding God. He provide me things or situation that I do not want but then now I am facing hardships that I cannot ecscape. Loneliness, being alone, self-pity are making me to cave more to darker and deeper instead of finding a way out. Can you find a way out inside the belly of the big fish when the only weapon you got is to pray? Now, I am waiting for the good Lord to rescue me because I believe He will.

But John the Baptist is one of my favorites. He lived in the dessert because that is where God told him to go. He was a righteous man. When the right time came he was sent to call Israel to repentance. He baptized all into repentance in the Jordan river. This was to make a way or highway for Jesus ministry. Then he was a witness that Jesus was the Christ. He saw the spirit descend unto Jesus . Jesus said John was the greatest to be born in the world. Hope you get out of that fish. Come to the joy of the lord. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God introduced me to His word the Bible starting at Job between what we call chapters 11 and 12. I then went backwards, then forward, and finally just read the book oF Job. As the first book of the Bible that I had ever read in it's entirety, and perhaps the only one I had ever read seeking information while still unsaved, that account of Job and the character of Job has influenced me ever since my finally turning about from my sin against God to instead bowing a knee before Jesus and declaring He is Lord, my Lord my savior.

Let's inspire, share insights, and learn from different perspectives with one another Hi Marriene, I love the topic. I see you have already got a number of replies. I think for me, at this point in life, I would say Ruth. I love the fact that her story is real, and is something that we can all relate to; We know that she was married and even after her husband died, she still honors and respects her mother in law. We see a woman who did not allow circumstances to bring her down. She could have focused on herself and what life would be like without a husband to take care of her, but she didn't. Hope you have a great day. Blessings 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His steadfast life (with no sin mentioned against him)... Why cannot be drawn right off the top but in careful examination of life seen: He had excellence in his heart and that excellence was with God first and all else a needful ordering of priority. No matter what was brought against him in life he sought that way, that life, that truth and look where it took him! To love the Lord God with all of self then others as self was lived out in his life in a very extraordinary way... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
