    Noah believed God, and he built an Ark to save his family. What can learn from Noah's faith, and what is there in the story of God's judgment that we need to share with the world?

    (I opened by pretending to read a children story about Noah. Then I read Hebrews 11:7) “By faith Noah, being warned by God concerning events as yet unseen, in reverent fear constructed an ark for the saving of his household.” PRAYER Now, the first part of Hebrews 11:7 tells us that God WARNED ...read more

    The measure by which we pour into the lives of others will be used by God to pour into us.
