 WEEKLY REFLECTIONS

 1.   How did Jonah survive being thrown overboard?  Who saved him?  What does this tell us about his savior?

 2.   Have you ever noticed God answering your prayers?  What happened?  Have you ever felt like your prayers went unanswered?  How did you respond?

 3.   How serious was Jonah’s condition in the sea?  How does he describe it in his prayers?

 4.   What good things can we learn from Jonah’s prayer?  What parts of his prayer might point to his own pride?

 5.   Prayer Project: What does it mean to say “Salvation comes from the LORD”?  How does that affect our personal life in Christ?  How should that affect the way we see the world around us?
