Forgive me... I just started reading this thread… glad PP posted that scripture.. I do believe it was a whale…

Gen 1:21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

God prepared and even named the great fish that would swallow Jonah up… he knows our failures…I believe he sees ahead of course and prepares for them.

Jonah 1:17 Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.

Matt 13:40 For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.


My brother preached a message on this once and I bawled like a baby through the whole thing ... had so many failures in my life... just was so assuring to know that he always prepares for our failures.. and he can still use us...even to do great things.


ok, I will go back to reading the rest of the thread..
