Still To Come -3

Man is created with a will; a mind of its own
Severally we love to walk opposite of Gods directive
Taking pleasure in pleasing self not God
For this; man has suffered immensely
 
Many have disobeyed with dire consequence
As I read the account of Noah and the animals
I’m drawn to the level of obedience of the mammals
These beings could teach us a thing or two
 
They had no shepherd yet they came from everywhere
Some animals are not seen in the open
Yet because the Lord commanded they moved
They were undisturbed that they could be harmed
 
In the ark they lived like the days of Eden
Lions dwelled with other animals in peace
None preyed on the other; none complained
They like Noah fully cooperated with Gods agenda
 
Was their time in the ark, most convenient?
Definitely not; their freedom was restricted
They were fed with meals provide, not hunted
They lived without questioning their latest predicament
 
Can we have men like Noah in our days?
Who will walk with God and please Him
One who will work at an ark far away from sea
One who looked foolish yet undeterred by mockers
 
Kudos to Noah whose obedience preserved a generation
His offering to God prompted the rainbow still seen till date
The multi-color sign is a reminder of Gods promise…
Not to destroy the world again by flood
 
Safe to say we owe our existence to him
For the evil of our day is nowhere near his time
The level of man’s wickedness is alarming
Yet God faithfully keeps to His promise
 
The end of the present world is also foretold
Our ark of safety now is Jesus; hope you have a seat
For the day of reckoning will come like Noah’s time
He is the one calling; I pray you heed
