Jonah's Nineveh

Jonah believed that justice required punishment, not mercy Obedience is what God desires from us, not our opinions Never weep or whine over spilled milk; just wipe it up And remember that every secret will be brought into the light Heaven is a place for forgiven people, not perfect people ' So let us all rejoice in God's mercy, not our goodness. Never give up on people who have gone astray I and you are candidates for God's mercy No one who still breathes is too far gone Everyone is capable of making a change Valuable lessons from Scripture are priceless Even animals are recipients of God's mercy Happily and Fortunately, God is rich in mercy 122119PoSoupContest, What's In A Name, Juliet Ligon, 1P

This wasn't originally what I had in mind, but a place name is still a name, and I couldn't pass this by because it is well thought out and has powerful meaning. Congrats on your top placement in my contest!
