"And it happened, when the sun arose, that God prepared a vehement east wind and the sun beat on Jonah's head, so that he grew faint, Then he wished death for himself and said, "It is better for me to die than to live!" Jonah 4:8
Jonah had some problems, mostly of his own making, but none of them called for a drastic death wish. It wasn't the problem, but the solution that troubled Jonah. God asked him to go to Nineveh and preach repentance. Jonah didn't like those people in Nineveh. He ran away and he would rather die than go back.
If every new day seems more difficult to face than the one before, it might be you are carrying a burden of disobedience to God's will. Ask Him why you are so 'down'.
PRAYING RESTS THE WEARY. When the heart is sad and dreary, don't forget to pray.
PRAYER: Father, I know that when I am in your will my heart is light. When my heart is heavy, show me your will and give me the grace to obey. I want to do your will, even when it is hard to do. In Jesus' Name, Amen
