And he said unto them, Take me up, and cast me forth into the sea; so shall the sea be calm unto you: for I know that for my sake this great tempest is upon you.
Jonah 1:12
A reminder that our actions and choices affect others--and that others very well may suffer for our decisions. However...God could turn around the effects of our choices to where He is glorified: "Then the men feared the LORD exceedingly, and offered a sacrifice unto the LORD, and made vows." Jonah 1:16

Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer. (Psalm 19:14)
