"Those who cling to worthless idols forfeit the grace that could be theirs." Jonah 2:8
How many times have I read the book of Jonah and never paid attention to this verse? I recently read the book The Fitting Room and the author pointed out this verse to me. I have been thinking about it and rereading it since then.
In the passage Jonah is praying to God from inside the fish. Jonah makes such a good point and I think it's worth thinking about today.
When we cling to idols in our lives, we are not open to accept the grace or love of Christ. Are you clinging to any idols that are keeping you from experiencing the grace of God?
Have a day of blessings!
