[QUOTE="Scroggymommy5, post: 28477701, member: 308994"] Genesis 6:13-22 So God said to Noah, “I am going to put an end to all people, for the earth is filled with violence because of them. I am surely going to destroy both them and the earth. 14 So make yourself an ark of cypress[c] wood; make rooms in it and coat it with pitch inside and out. 15 This is how you are to build it: The ark is to be three hundred cubits long, fifty cubits wide and thirty cubits high.[d] 16 Make a roof for it, leaving below the roof an opening one cubit[e] high all around.[f] Put a door in the side of the ark and make lower, middle and upper decks. 17 I am going to bring floodwaters on the earth to destroy all life under the heavens, every creature that has the breath of life in it. Everything on earth will perish. 18 But I will establish my covenant with you, and you will enter the ark—you and your sons and your wife and your sons’ wives with you. 19 You are to bring into the ark two of all living creatures, male and female, to keep them alive with you. 20 Two of every kind of bird, of every kind of animal and of every kind of creature that moves along the ground will come to you to be kept alive. 21 You are to take every kind of food that is to be eaten and store it away as food for you and for them.†22 Noah did everything just as God commanded him. This is always one of my favorite passages to read. In fact, I read it quite often. Back in March 2013, when my husband of 20+ years walked out on our marriage and our family, I fell to my knees begging the Lord for an answer as to why this? Why again? The Lord showed me where I could go to find my answers and find my purpose in all of this. So here is where I found my peace. In Noah's story. I am also a Noah, my Heavenly Father has told me. He has ordained me to be the "Noah" of my family, which not only consists of myself, my husband and our 5 children, but our extended family and our future grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Now THAT's a HUGE responsibility. The battle that is raging in my family is NOT a battle of mere flesh and blood, it's a MAJOR spiritual battle! This battlefield will be the deciding factor for not only this genration but the next few as well. The Lord has certainly placed a great deal of trust in me, hasn't He? He trusts ME to stand!
