The month of May has just flown by. I feel like I say that just about every month, but month by month is seems to ring truer and truer. This month I had the opportunity to travel down to Kentucky, with 11 other people from camp to visit the Creation Museum. It was a long trip but well worth the experience. First of all, we spent the night in tipis. Yeah, they were legitimate tipis. To top of that experience it was pouring down rain. At first I was unsure, but now I can definitely say I have slept in a tipi. Although the tipis were fun, the Creation Museum was definitely the highlight. At the museum they had a walk through, that took you through history starting at Creation and all the way to Christ's crucifixion. The part that interested me the most was the part that went through the Flood, and the ark. I never knew the intensity of the vastness that the ark was. It was awesome to see and kind of experience the process, and the distinct obedience that Noah had to what God was calling him to do. So often I find myself seeking instant gratification when God calls me to obey. Noah had to stay faithful for 100 years before his obedience actually served a purpose. I hope for a faith that will bring me to absolute obedience that Noah exemplified.
" The LORD said, "I will blot out man whom I have created from the face of the land, from man to animals to creeping things and to birds of the sky; for I am sorry that I have made them."
But Noah found favor in the eyes of the LORD.
These are the records of the generations of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, blameless in his time; Noah walked with God." Genesis 6:7-9
This is what the Bible says about Noah. I hope and pray that God will stretch me and grow me to a faith that i like Noah's.
