Because starting today I have a lot to talk about.
So hopefully I'll be able to blog almost everyday.
Today's reading on my Bible plan: Genesis: 6-22 and 7
This has to be one of my favorite parts of the Bible.
(Because of my love of animals, shocking I know)
This is about when God spoke to Noah and told him about the flood coming.
It gives specifics of the dimensions of the ark, animals, and what to do. It says exactly why God has commanded this to happen: the wickedness of the world is so great He regrets even making us! This is very sad that He was so upset about what we were doing that He wanted to destroy everything. I also think it's amazing that people once actually lived as long as Noah did: 600 years!! He had his 600th birthday on the ark! How cool is that?
It also amazes me that all the animals in the world were on this one boat together and God quieted them so that no one tried to eat anyone else and they all got along. Imagine trying that on your own, it wouldn't be possible.
Side Note:
This also makes me think that maybe, just maybe, this is how/why all of the dinosaurs got wiped out. I have to say that I don't really believe in Darwin's evolution theory. Think about it: God might not have wanted the dinosaurs to continue...so the flood wiped them out. And what caused the fossilization process to go back millions upon millions of years? The pressure from all the water! The Bible does say that the water rose 20 feet above the tops of mountains (Genesis 7:20), so imagine that much water and how much it would weigh, it could quite possibly make everything under it fossilize much quicker.
Disclaimer: I do not know the process to determine how old fossils are, and there are things that can't be explained in my theory. This is my opinion and I'm entitled to it. :)
