· Cain left the Lord’s presence and lived in the land of Nod, east of Eden. (Genesis 4:16)
· When Abram and Lot parted, Lot chose to go east to Sodom. (Genesis 13:11-13)
· With their backs toward the temple of the Lord, men faced east and worshiped the sun. (Ezekiel 8:16)

Read Jonah 4:9-11. Where might you be tempted to choose your own will in your life, and how could you trust God instead?
Have you experienced a time when you chose to skip God’s lessons and go straight for His blessings? What opportunities do we miss when we ignore God’s lessons?
Where might God be giving you another chance? What choice will you make in response?
