## Written prayer

My God, when I hear the whisper of Your voice like a cool breeze I will heed Your commands and come into alignment with Your heart's desire. I will not take on the position of Jonah in my life by looking out for myself and ignoring the plans You have for me. Through my obedience I am securing myself from being thrown overboard in the storm of life, and from causing others to suffer as a result of my disobedience. No matter how reluctant I may feel, through my faithfulness to You no fish will be needed to get me to the place You’ve called me to go. Instead of being thrown up I will grow up and acknowledge that You are in control of my life and as I submit to Your ways deliverance and purpose will follow.

In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
