God came upon Jonah one night in a dream said, " preach against Ninevah It's sins i have seen" God's spirit went one way but Johna the other he jumped on a boat and hid under cover The seas got much bigger as black thunder roared the crew found out Johna he was tossed over board As Johna was drowning he cried to the Lord " please God save me for it's you I adore " God showed his compassion and sent a big whale that swallowed up Jonna and to Nineveh kicked tail Three days & three nights the big fish did swim it's belly full of cargo Johna praying within The lord heard his prayers & gave a command then up spat ole Johna onto the dry land God said again , " go to Ninveh and preach , that city full of people my grace wants to reach " So forward went Johna to warn of God's wrath and just as he feared they turned from sins path Those people weren't Hebrew so Johna was jealous that his God would save a city so rebellious Then God spoke to Johna in the heat of the day " you care more for shade than sins washed away " " why be greedy with me ? I'm a saviour for all don't put me in boxes never run from my call " " so when that day comes that I ask you to go don't be like ole Johna and pull a no show " " but be like that whale that was ready to kick tail " LPConvey2014

Johna
God came upon Jonah one night in a dream said, " preach against Ninevah It's sins i have seen" God's spirit went one way but Johna the other he jumped on a boat and hid under cover The seas got much bigger as black thunder roared the crew found out Johna he was tossed over board As Johna was drowning he cried to the Lord " please God save me for it's you I adore " God showed his compassion and sent a big whale that swallowed up Jonna and to Nineveh kicked tail Three days & three nights the big fish did swim it's belly full of cargo Johna praying within The lord heard his prayers & gave a command then up spat ole Johna onto the dry land God said again , " go to Ninveh and preach , that city full of people my grace wants to reach " So forward went Johna to warn of God's wrath and just as he feared they turned from sins path Those people weren't Hebrew so Johna was jealous that his God would save a city so rebellious Then God spoke to Johna in the heat of the day " you care more for shade than sins washed away " " why be greedy with me ?
