TGIF!!!
Thank the good Lord it is Friday. This has been a long week.
Melanie and I were reading "The Pupose Driven Life" last night and during day nine it talks about 5 lessons we can learn from Noah. It brought out some interesting things about Noah that I never thought of before that proves there is a God......at least to me.
1. Noah did not live near the water/ocean. Noah built a boat at least a hundred miles from the nearest water source big enough for a boat. Now in order for that boat to end up on Mt. Ararat a miracle had to occur. Not likely that they hitched up a boat that big to a couple oxen and dragged it.
2. Noah's son's believed as well. Just think, if they didn't do you think they would have really been around? I mean seriously, their dad was building a boat in their front yeard. Embarrassing if you ask me. I could just see my dad building an igloo in our front yard saying their is going to be a freeze....yeah, right dad. Good luck with that. I am having NO part. However, Noah's sons trusted their father and believed.
3. Noah made God smile. That's it. Noah was so faithful and obedient, even when no one else was, that it made God smile. I pray I am obedient enough to God, that He looks down on me and smiles. Man, to bring that much pleasure to my Lord.
May God bless you!
