Evangelism 101, Day 2

What are you sleeping through? Read Jonah 1:4-6.

Jonah was on the run and he was desperate to get away from what God was leading him to do. But, he wasn’t paying attention to anything else except his disobedience. They were in a terrible situation and Jonah was oblivious. He was asleep in the bottom of the boat.

When we are following God, he keeps us in exactly the right place at exactly the right time. However, if we are not being obedient, we can often find ourselves in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Are we paying attention to all that is going on around us? Or, like Jonah, are we sleeping through life and oblivious to everything else? We must wake up to God’s will in our life.
