Jonah, Not About The Fish

This is a quick devotion about the Old Testament prophet, Jonah. Jonah was a prophet who didn't want to do what God asked of him. He went so far as to get into boat and go the other direction! In this devotion, the author makes a point of saying Jonah's story is not about the great fish. Instead he says, this is a story about the human condition and more importantly, God's great love and patience!
