The request and refusal of Jonah

Jonah was a real person, and not some made up character, who even Jesus referenced at one point in His ministry. He was given an assignment to go and preach to his enemy but instead he chose to run from his calling and the presence of God. What he found was that we can't get away from God and in fact God sent a hurricane out after him to get his attention. Has God called on you to do something that you don't want to do? Will you go along with God or enroll in Jonah's university?
