Starting Well [Fish Belly Prayers]

The sermon explored Jonah's remarkable prayer from the belly of the fish, revealing how a man facing impossible circumstances chose gratitude over complaint. Rather than pleading for rescue or drowning in self-pity, Jonah recognized God's grace in sustaining him and responded with thanksgiving. This challenges us to examine our own prayers during difficult seasons and reminds us that our hardships don't have to define us—God's faithfulness does.
