20 Then Noah built an altar to the Lord and, taking some of all the clean animals and clean birds, he sacrificed burnt offerings on it. 21 The Lord smelled the pleasing aroma and said in his heart: “Never again will I curse the ground because of humans, even though every inclination of the human heart is evil from childhood. And never again will I destroy all living creatures, as I have done.
Our current weather conditions in mid-Michigan beg a Noah reading for today, but doing it after the flood is key, since that was a one-time flood. Ain't....happenin'....again. Read God's lips.
I joked that the special-ed students flooded out of their Northwood U site (that's not a slam on the "Woodies"; the special-ed folks at MCESA have a program for adult students on campus along with the good business college) could use The Arc instead, but we won't need another ark... ever.
We may deserve that treatment as a fallen bunch of critters, but God got that bit of anger out of His system for good; Golgotha cinched that by giving Him a punching bag for our sins, if I might make a bit of a stretched metaphor.
