Get in the Boat

“All I Really Need to Know About Life, I Learned from Noah’s Ark”

(1) Don’t miss the boat.
(2) Don’t forget we’re all in the same boat.
(3) Plan ahead–it wasn’t raining when Noah built the ark.
(4) Stay fit–when you’re 600 years old someone might ask you to do something really big.
(5) Don’t listen to critics, just get on with what has to be done.
(6) For safety’s sake, travel in pairs.
(7) Two heads are better than one.
(8) Build your future on high ground.
(9) Speed isn’t always an advantage; after all, the snails were on the same ark as the cheetahs.
(10) When you’re stressed, float awhile.
(11) Remember, amateurs built the ark; professionals built the Titanic.
(12) Remember that the woodpeckers inside are a larger threat than the storm outside.
(13) No matter what the storm, when God is with you, there’s a rainbow waiting.

King Solomon wrote, “A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished”.

Isn’t it odd that some couples spend more time preparing for their wedding day than they do on their future years together in marriage. And many folks make elaborate plans for their careers, their retirement, but yet give only a fleeting thought to the eternity that exists after both career and retirement are gone.

The writer of Hebrews wrote, “…it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment.”

Jesus said,“As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.
