Gen 6:9-22

I always wondered why Noah? Was it just from genalogical purposes or was there something special about him? The Bible called him a "righteous" man and that He walked with God. Was he a perfect man? No, but he loved and really cared for God and tried to walk in His ways. It's all about the 'tude and his was geared toward God. God loved him so much that he wanted to save him and his family and the untainted creation (the animals). So many times I've heard the expression that "if you were the only one, God still would have sent Jesus for you". This is the case that He did save the "one" and is the proof that He would do it again. The ark (and the word) is unique since it only appears in this instance but the boat is more than that since he was directed to make rooms in the craft. The provisions that he was instructed to take with him also provided for the animals as well as the family. I often remember the monologue that Bill Cosby did back in the 60s which was hilarious but to the point. Such memories...

Today is another landmark day for me - three miles over the Jimmy Carter speed limit and getting higher. Only plans that are set for tonight is our dinner at Kouzina - Cat Cora's restaurant which has a great fish dish, bronzini. Looking forward to it!

Praise for today: He is faithful and just!
