Have you ever felt lost in a mess of your own creation, unworthy of rescue? We all mess things up time and again, and it can be easy to feel like we deserve what we're getting. We recite platitudes like "I made this bed and now I must lie in it." But when we look at the second movement of Jonah, we get a different picture. Jonah had landed himself in the belly of a great fish. While the pagan sailors were praying to their gods in the storm, Jonah didn't even pray once. And yet, when he does finally turn to the Lord, reflecting on His Heart of Mercy, we see the Lord deliver Jonah even though he didn't deserve it. The fish spits Jonah onto dry land and he is Rescued.
