Call and response. That's the way it works, God calls and we respond. We can respond either by following or running away. The first four disciples chose to follow immediately when Jesus called them. Paul knew about Jesus and chose to persecute the church until Jesus struck him blind and spoke to him from heaven on the road to Damascus. Jonah required even more convincing to follow God to Nineveh. God persists and perseveres in calling His servants to the work He has for them. When He calls us to a people He intends us to love those people. Jonah didn't but it seems he ultimately did. Jesus loved a world He knew would hate Him enough to come on a mission to save them. Let's do it the easy way by responding with Yes.
