As I wake to another day of April showers my thoughts go to our friend Noah. I guess partly because I've been planning a trip for our church to go see that new musical in Branson about him. But I'll also admit, I'm beginning to tire of this particular weather pattern.
Question: How many of each animal did Noah take onto the ark with him?
You might be surprised at the answer! Most people will say two without batting an eye, but there are actually two answers. The Bible tells us in Genesis 7:2, "Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that [are] not clean by two, the male and his female."
No this is not useless Bible trivia. To me it is a reminder to make sure what the Bible says. Don't take my word or anyone else's word..Read it for yourself. There are lots of things people say are in the Bible not actually there and a whole lots of things being misrepresented by men.
Let God speak for Himself. Read the book. He wrote it just for you!
Stay dry!

Yea next month we will begin to get the rain and into June it is usually an every day occurrence for the next few months. I have begun to tire of the American press and all the Obama vs. Hillary stories. Don't we have any good news? We need a patriot, and we just do not have those who are in the news. Don't take my word for it =-)
