Missing Mercy

Do you ever find yourself getting mad at the circumstances of your life, or at others, or at God for the way He does things? Jonah experienced the same, and in Jonah 4:5-11, God helps him understand what is going on in his heart beneath that anger. He does this to help heal Jonah, desiring to make his prophet more like Himself, with a heart that operates on the basis of mercy and compassion.
