THE EARTH DESTROYED BY FLOOD

I suppose the recent flooding here and in our region reminds me that flood is no small matters. For Singapore, we are usually spared from natural disaster. It was quite hard to believe when we heard of flood up to shoulder height.

For the days of the old, man sin flooded the world and God had to do a clean up with a flood, except for Noah and family. Noah means comfort and he did bring comfort. In days of evil and pain (God was grieved), Noah was a comfort.

His offering was a pleasing aroma to God. His complete obedience too was a pleasing aroma. He walked with God.

In return, God established the first convenant - with the rainbow as the sign. Rainbow always bring comfort for it comes either before or after rain. In days of uncertainty, remember Rainbow - God's covnenant and promise.
