The Importance of Prayer

In family, when we know that's our God, we start declaring and praying and living from mercy. We realize he has been so good to me. I can't help but live. This is what you see in Jonah, again, the spark of goodness. In verse 7, reflecting when my life was ebbing away, I remembered you, Lord. My prayer rose to your holy temple. And then he says, those who cling to worthless idols turn away from God's love for them. But I with shouts of grateful praise will sacrifice to you what I have vowed I will make good. He's like, I'm going to live different. Now, there's a lot of irony
