—Genesis 6:1-8
by: Susie Sanborn.
If we look around at our society today, we come to realize that the fallen men and women of the Old Testament were really no different than we are. Looking out for number one was most likely their number one priority. They put themselves instead of God first in their lives. Noah was singled out as a man who “found favor in the eyes of the Lord” (Genesis 6:8, NIV). Noah seems like a superhero of the faith, but he really wasn’t much different from you and me. He simply lived by the standard God had given and followed God with all his heart.
