July is officially hurricane season and already hurricane Beryl has been a category 4 storm roaring across the warm waters of the lower Caribbean. I grew up in that part of the world so I have many memories of great storms thrusting palm trees through the sky like toothpicks or small mountain streams turned into flash floods tearing down the mountain side taking everything in its path.
For that reason it’s not difficult for me to imagine the great storms described in the Bible, like the one we’re looking at these days in about the year 759bc as it raged on the Mediterranean Sea. Or at least it did, until sailors from a nearly destroyed ship finally threw one of their passengers, Jonah, overboard, at his insistence, into the crashing waves. Why would they do that? Because Jonah admitted he was the cause of the storm and their near demise! He was running away from God and God was chasing after him!
Today’s Scripture: Jonah 2:1-3:1.
