A Sotry of Jonah

What is responsibility? Responsibility is for people to do what they are supposed to do . Being responsible means being dependable, keeping promises and honoring our commitments .

What is the responsibility of being a human? You may think that the responsibility of humans is working. Do humans only need to do this ? No! Those are not enough .

From that time on Jesus began to preach, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.”Jesus says our responsibility is to repentance our offense for doing those kinds of bad things, not just to protect the natural enviornment also something else.

Now we are going to share a story about responsibility.Once upon a time,there was a man named Jonah who was called by the voice of God. God tells Jonah to go to the city of Nineveh,where the people are wicked, and to teach them to give up their evil ways.

Fearing this responsibility, Jonah tries to escape from God by boarding a ship that is going to a far-off land. Soon a storm appears and the ship is in danger of sinking.

The sailors believe this is the result of someone on the ship who has brought bad luck with them. When they draw lots to see who has brought this bad luck, it is Jonah who holds the black stick. Jonah admits to the sailors that he has done wrong. He tells them that he has escaped away from the Lord’s command.

Then, He tells the sailors to throw him into the sea. When they do, the Lord sends a great fish to swallow up Jonah. After three days and nights in the belly of the fish, Jonah pleads with the Lord to save him and promises that he will never disobey Him again.

The Lord asks the great fish to open its mouth and let Jonah out. The story closes with Jonah going to Nineveh and helping the people give up their evil ways, just as the Lord commanded.

In the story we learn that we cannot escape from your responsibility.
