As I was out on my morning jog and it was raining on me. I began to think

on the following scriptures.

Realizing how our present society has so much in common with the times

and folks back then.  And like them, many of us are so callous and

unconcerned so unaware of the times and the heartbreak of God?

 

Gen 6:5  And God saw that the evil of man was great on the earth, and

every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil all the day

long.

:6  And Jehovah repented that He had made man on the earth, and He was

 grieved to His heart.

:7  And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.

:8  But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.

Gen 6:17  And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh,

Gen 7:12  And the rain was on the earth forty days and forty nights.

:22  All died in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land.

:23  And every living thing which was on the face of the earth was wiped

 away, from man to cattle, and to the creeping things, and the fowl of the

 heavens.  They were wiped off from the earth, and only Noah was left,

 and those who were with him in the ark.

Gen 8:1  And God remembered Noah..

 

REFLECTIONS: Anyone ever wondered as to why God chose to take the life of all creation inclusive of man, beast and animals?

Man indeed deserved the judgment of God.
But why the rest of creation which was created for our benefit and blessing?

And innocent of our sinful behavior. Perhaps God was saying or rather showing.
That the consequences of our behavior and sins.

Are far more costly than we can imagine? Sin cost more than we can comprehend, effects more people than we know, and damages far beyond our recognition.
And takes or demands more than we can afford.

But I NOTICE something else here as well, even in the mist of an ungodly, wicked, perverse, and rebellious people.

God can still look out and see and find someone who can find GRACE in the sight of the Lord. Someone who refuses to bow to idolatry, REFUSES to serve sin rather than the SON.

And how bout this one in the mist of such wickedness, such idolatry, such perversion. The bible saids God remembered Noah.

Anyone ever thought on oh how God’s heart and memory must be grieved with mans sinful lifestyle. But hey there is still SOMEONE God can REMEMBER! Remember with fondness, with desire, with love, with admiration! Could that be you?
