July 8th: Genesis 7

Genesis 7

Can you imagine being on the ark?  On a big boat with all kinds of animals with all of their sounds and smells?
Noah and his family were on the ark with the animals and with one another, not just for 40 days and 40 nights, but for far longer. In fact it was about a year from the time Noah and his family entered the ark to the time they were able to leave.  Yet God kept them safe the entire time.

In 1 Peter 3:18-24, God's Word tells us that baptism saves us as Noah was saved through the flood.  Baptism brings death and new life just as in the flood there was death and new life.
