One Year Bible: Day 195 - Jonah 1:1-4:11; Romans 2:1-16; Psalm 85:1-7

In Nineveh, God works in mighty power. “Jonah was greatly displeased and became angry” (Jonah 3:10-4:1). To this proud attitude, God says, “You ... have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else” (Romans 2:1). He calls for a change of attitude: “Do you show contempt for the riches of His kindness ... ?” (Romans 2:4). Rather than complaining about God’s goodness - ‘What right has He to bless these people, of all people?’, we are to cry to God that we ourselves may also be revived: “Restore us again ... Will you not revive us again ... ?” (Psalm 85:4,6).
