TODAY'S BIBLE TWEET

JONAH 1:3a

BIBLE TEXT: “But Jonah rose up to flee unto Tarshish from the presence of the Lord…” (Jonah 1:3a KJV)

BIBLE TWEET: Tarshish was not only in the opposite direction from Nineveh, which was in the east, but also about as far west as one could go towards the end of the earth in Jonah’s day. Therefore, Jonah didn’t  just run from God, but ran as far from God as he could.

BIBLE TAKEAWAY: No matter how hard or far you run there is no getting away from an omnipresent God who is ever-present everywhere.
