Publisher Description
We all at times face problems that seem irresolvable, desiring to say, like Jonah in the Bible, “Pick me up and throw me into the sea,” because we see no other options. In most cases, this is caused by noise around us which causes us to make irrational decisions.
It is unlikely that, when Jonah landed up in the belly of a fish, he felt that this was a particularly good alternative to the other things that could have happened to him as the result of the situation in which he had been caught. But it was while in the belly of the fish that he had time to take stock of his life and reconnect with God. It is by God’s compelling love that this place is created and made available for all who need it, instead of putting to an end the work He had assigned them to fulfil on earth.
Through the story of Jonah, this book teaches the only option that is open to us all: the option of prayer, accessible from the belly. What is not possible through us or those we consult is possible through God. The teachings include:
•knowing when God has provided the belly of the fish
•how to spend your time in the belly
•how to carry on with your purpose after being released from the belly and,
•how never to run out of options, but run into heavenly options
