📖 经文
「耶和华啊,我在本国的时候岂不是这样说吗?我知道你是有恩典、有怜悯的神,不轻易发怒,有丰盛的慈爱,并且后悔不降所说的灾,所以我急速逃往他施去。」
——《约拿书》4:2

✨ 信息亮光
1. 约拿的挣扎
• 他深知神的慈爱,却不愿尼尼微人得赦免。
• 人的心常有限,容易被民族、情绪、仇恨绑住。
2. 神的属性
• 有恩典 → 赐人不配得的好处。
• 有怜悯 → 免去人该得的惩罚。
• 不轻易发怒 → 神的忍耐超过人想象。
• 丰盛慈爱 → 祂乐意赦免,不愿一人沉沦。
3. 对我们的提醒
• 神的爱超越界限,怜悯临到“所有悔改的人”。
• 不要像约拿一样狭窄,而要像神一样宽广。

📖 Scripture
“O Lord, is this not what I said when I was still in my country? That is why I was so quick to flee to Tarshish. I knew that You are a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger and abounding in love, a God who relents from sending calamity.”
— Jonah 4:2

✨ Insight
1. Jonah’s Struggle
• He knew God’s compassion but didn’t want Nineveh to be forgiven.
• The human heart is often narrow, bound by nationalism, emotions, and grudges.
2. God’s Character
• Gracious → Gives what we don’t deserve.
• Merciful → Spares us from the punishment we do deserve.
• Slow to anger → His patience is beyond human imagination.
• Abounding in love → He delights to forgive and does not want anyone to perish.
3. Our Reminder
• God’s love crosses boundaries; His mercy is for all who repent.
• We must not be narrow like Jonah, but wide in heart like God.
