                    “ Running From God.”

Questions and reflections  to Ask Yourself

1. Is there something God has been asking me to do that I have been avoiding?
2. Am I running from God in any area of my life—even while still going to church and appearing faithful?
3. What is my “Tarshish”—the place, habit, excuse, or distraction I use to go in the opposite direction from God?
4. When God’s Word challenges me, do I obey—or do I look for an easier way?
5. Has my disobedience affected people around me, just as Jonah’s choices affected the sailors?
6. Am I spiritually asleep to something God is trying to get my attention about?
7. Is there someone I find difficult to love, forgive, or reach—someone I would rather avoid?
8. What might change in my life if I simply said, “Yes, Lord,” today?

“Where am I running from God—and what would it look like for me to turn around and obey Him?”
