Today’s Reading
1/3/2019 Day 3 Genesis 6:1 - 9:17

Reflection
Humanity increasingly becomes wicked and God is ashamed
at them and decides to start all over but finds one man Noah
who is faithful and worthy of saving. God talks to Noah about
the Lord’s plan and gives instructions to build an Ark for those
who will survive the Flood. Noah is 600 years and the flood of the
Earth last 40 days. The water recesses and they find dry land;
God makes a promise never to let it happen again that God would
destroy humanity because of their sin. Rainbow. J writes the first
part and at vs 22 P begins

Meditation:
I will never destroy humanity.

Prayer:
God, I acknowledge my common condition of willfulness; I do
understand the inclination in me toward that which does not
match  your intentions for me. I cast myself on your mercy and
continue to wait for your help in doing your will more consistently.
