“The word of the Lord came to Jonah, saying, “Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and proclaim to it the message that I tell you.” So Jonah arose and went to Nineveh . . . And he cried, “Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown!” And the people of Nineveh believed God; they proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the
greatest of them to the least of them. The tidings reached the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, removed his rove, and covered himself with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.” Jonah 3:1-6. St. Pope John Paul II said, “Love of Christ does not distract us from interest in others, but rather invites us to responsibility for them, to the exclusion of no one.”

Let us pray, Loving Father gives us the obedience of Jonah; to do what You command us to do and fulfill it to the letter. You have given us responsibilities in our families, jobs and stations of life; may we fulfill what You expect of us diligently and consistently. Amen. “Let your light shine!!” Be blessed. Larry.
