~THE LORD SPOKE TO ME ABOUT JONAH~
Jonah 3:10 (TLB) “And when God saw that they had put a stop to their evil ways, he abandoned his plan to destroy them and didn’t carry it through.”
Jonah 4:1-11 “This change of plans made Jonah very angry. He complained to the Lord about it: “This is exactly what I thought you’d do, Lord, when I was there in my own
country and you first told me to come here. That’s why I ran away to Tarshish. For I knew you were a gracious God, merciful, slow to get angry, and full of kindness; I knew how easily you could cancel your plans for destroying these people. “Please kill me, Lord; I’d rather be dead than alive when nothing that I told them happens.”

“Then the Lord said, “You feel sorry for yourself when your shelter
is destroyed, though you did no work to put it there, and it is, at best, short-lived. And why shouldn’t I feel sorry for a great city like Nineveh with its 120,000 people in utter spiritual darkness and all its cattle?
