I miss blogging and while I am glad to be back, I am finding it difficult to get into the groove of saying anything that even I find meaningful. I am on day 4 of the utter realization that my time in the 30s is waning. I decided I might try something a little different. I am going to explore several passages in the bible with my birthday chapter and verse.
NIV Genesis 7:20 -The waters rose and covered the mountains to a depth of more than twenty feet.
So we are talking about Noah and the ark and the destruction of the people on earth because of their sins. The next two verses speak of everything – every animal, everything that had breath dying. God warned His people. I wonder how often He has warned me. All inhabitants with the exception of Noah and his family had turned away from God. There have been times in my life where I have turned away from God. Genesis 7:20 shows me the power and absolute magnitude of God. He knows the hairs on our head and loves us all, but has the power and authority to discipline us. Can you imagine waters covering the mountains? That image is pretty intense. My thoughts are pretty incohesive – I will try again tomorrow.
Peace
