Jonah 1:4, “But the Lord sent a great wind on the sea. This wind made the sea very rough. So the ship was in danger of breaking apart.” When Jonah tried to run away from our Creator, a storm raged and the ship he was on was about to be destroyed. The sailors tried what they knew how to do to save the ship but it wasn’t until Jonah told them to throw him into the sea that the storm calmed. Jonah’s confession and eventual repentance saved not only those on board the ship, it also saved many in Nineveh.
