I Was the Common Denominator

I was continuing to have a similar problem in a variety of different situations. The fact that I was the common denominator caused me to do a self-examination. Obviously there was a lesson to be learned that wasn't being learned.


I felt like Jonah who tried running away from the Lord's calling for him to go to Nineveh--something he didn't want to do--but he found that he couldn't hide or run away from the Lord's plans for him.

It's a reminder to me that it isn't the situation that needs to change. It is I who needs to change and/or accept the direction the Lord wants for my life. So rather than trying to find someone or something to blame for my discomfort I need to be asking, "What lesson am I suppose to be learning?"
