We’ve only covered 4 verses of Jonah’s story, but so much has already happened. God has spoken, Jonah has decided to run away from what he knows God wants him to do, and it puts him on a boat headed in the opposite direction of where God wants him to be. We learned yesterday, you can’t outrun God.
Today’s reading is a great reminder of something we forget: sin causes storms.
Make no mistake, there is always a storm connected to sin. In the words of Tim Keller, “The Bible doesn’t say that every difficulty is a result of sin, but it does teach that every sin will bring you difficulty.”
After you finish reading, be sure to listen to the daily podcast episode of Jonah by Daily Faith + Life wherever you listen to podcasts.

About this Plan
Almost everyone is familiar with the man who was swallowed by the whale. But Jonah is much more than a childhood Bible lesson, at its core, it’s a story about a stubborn man and a gracious God. Over the next 7 days, you will read Jonah’s story twice along with some other companion verses.
