Arise and Go

Jonah 1:5-10 - God often sends storms into our lives not simply to punish, but to awaken us, redirect us, and draw us back into His purposes. Jonah tried to run away, avoided facing God’s call, and in doing so created a bigger problem—not just for himself, but for others around him. Yet God’s purposes persist, and even through disobedience, He pursues, disciplines, invites us to “arise,” repent, and take up what He has for us.
