Do not be like Jonas

* Luís Alberto Alves

Many Christians act just like Jonah: God commands to do something, but they rebel and try not to hear the voice of the Lord. They think that Jesus asks us just to do easy tasks.

In doing so, they go against the Lord's designs. God wants us to preach the Word to bad people, just like the people of Nineveh who took pleasure in the practice of evil. Meditate: Have you refused to obey Jesus' orders?
