Haikus: The Hilarious Misadventures Of Jonah
3 Jan 2023 at 4:29 AM
Jonah 2:8
"Those who cling to worthless idols turn away from God's love for them."
Jonah, running fast,
Wasted potential we see,
Swallowed by a fish.
Inside the belly,
A comical odyssey,
Regret fills Jonah.
Prayer from fish's gut,
Repentance, a crying plea,
God's mercy received.
Spewed onto dry land,
Jonah fulfills his mission,
Humility learned.
