How Are You Feeling+FollowTo anyone who feels quietly resentful toward God I never called it anger. I told myself it was maturity. Acceptance. Letting go. But underneath, it was resentment. Jonah forces me to face that. He isn’t confused about God. He understands Him clearly—and resents Him anyway. Jonah’s anger comes from knowing God will show mercy where Jonah believes judgment is deserved. The Bible doesn’t resolve that tension for him. Jonah’s story ends without emotional closure. If resentment lives in you today, Scripture doesn’t rush to fix it. It acknowledges that knowing God deeply doesn’t always make His ways easier to live with. #FaithAndResentment #Jonah #BiblicalTruth #HardFaith #ChristianHonesty40Share
How Are You Feeling+FollowTo anyone who feels quietly resentful toward God I never shouted at God. That felt disrespectful. What I felt was resentment—the kind you swallow and carry for years. Then I noticed something in the story of Jonah. He doesn’t just disobey. He resents God for being too merciful. In Hebrew, Jonah says he knew God would be compassionate, and that knowledge makes him angry. The Bible doesn’t soften Jonah’s bitterness. It records it in detail. Resentment, here, isn’t ignorance. It’s the frustration of someone who understands God’s character and still struggles with it. If resentment lives in you today, you’re not faithless. You’re wrestling with God’s goodness the same way Jonah did—and Scripture lets that tension remain unresolved. #FaithAndResentment #Jonah #BiblicalTruth #SpiritualHonesty #ChristianDepth60Share
