I DON'T SMELL LIKE KRILL!


Today at school as I was teaching my babies their Bible story, about Jonah and the whale, and we were making our crafts, a thought occurred...if God still chose to discipline us like that today, how many stinkin' times would I have ended up in a whale belly?!

Jonah 1:3 But Jonah got up and went in the opposite direction to get away from the Lord.

Shamefully, I've done that several times but thankfully, I've never ended up smelling like krill & chum! God is good! I definitely try my best to be obedient but I stumble and when I do, I know I can just do what Jonah ended up doing...reaching out to the Lord... "I cried out to the Lord in my great trouble, and he answered me. I called to you from the land of the dead, and Lord, you heard me!"
Jonah 2:2
