Lent: God said, "should I not concern about....."

God Does care a bout us, each and every one of us.  God cares about even those who do not know their left hand from right hands and all the animals.  See the end of the Bible passage below.  God's love is inclusive.  Many a time I am Jonah of my own time. God tells me to go somewhere and I say, "No thank you, because of this and that".  I often forget that God's love is for everyone even those who are utterly unlike me.  I often pass judgement on people based on my experience of them without remembering what might they mean to God. 
On this third day of Lent I am thinking a bout fear still as I did yesterday.  Ever since I can remember I am always afraid that I may not follow the path God has intended for me and yet I often got side track.  So, I pray today, "Great and merciful God teach me your way, tell me your will and help me hear you for I am a sinner of your own redeeming. In Jesus' name. Amen."
One of the scripture readings for today by "Common Lictionary" is Jonah 4:1-11. Please do read on.

Jonah 4:1-11

Jonah’s Anger

But this was very displeasing to Jonah, and he became angry. He prayed to the Lordand said, ‘O Lord! Is not this what I said while I was still in my own country? That is why I fled to Tarshish at the beginning; for I knew that you are a gracious God and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love, and ready to relent from punishing. And now, O Lord, please take my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live.’ And the Lord said, ‘Is it right for you to be angry?’ Then Jonah went out of the city and sat down east of the city, and made a booth for himself there. He sat under it in the shade, waiting to see what would become of the city.

 The Lord God appointed a bush, and made it come up over Jonah, to give shade over his head, to save him from his discomfort; so Jonah was very happy about the bush. But when dawn came up the next day, God appointed a worm that attacked the bush, so that it withered. When the sun rose, God prepared a sultry east wind, and the sun beat down on the head of Jonah so that he was faint and asked that he might die. He said, ‘It is better for me to die than to live.

Jonah Is Reproved

 But God said to Jonah, ‘Is it right for you to be angry about the bush?’ And he said, ‘Yes, angry enough to die.’ Then the Lord said, ‘You are concerned about the bush, for which you did not labour and which you did not grow; it came into being in a night and perished in a night. And should I not be concerned about Nineveh, that great city, in which there are more than a hundred and twenty thousand people who do not know their right hand from their left, and also many animals?’
