Compassion: Jonah Series - Week 4

Week 4 — Limitless (Jonah 4:1-4, 10-11; Matthew 12:40)  Have you ever thought God’s goodness could run out? Oh sure, in theory it knows no bounds, but in reality that doesn’t always seem to be true. That line of thinking can sometimes result in us becoming angry toward God when he is gracious to people that we don’t think deserve it. The truth is, God will extend his compassion to anyone and everyone if they seek him fully, and that includes us. The height of God’s compassion was seen in Jesus. (He gave the world the ‘sign of Jonah’ so that we could see this in it’s fullest glory.) By making this connection we can see that the compassion of God is, indeed, limitless; and ours can be, too, because of that.
