Parasha Minute: Genesis / Breisheet預覽

"A Call to Readiness" In the first few verses in this Torah portion, we read that Noach (Noah) walked with God. Such intimacy with God made Noah different from the rest of humankind, whose hearts had grown violent and corrupt. Their sin made it impossible to walk with God, much less know what He had planned. Noah alone was aware of the impending punishment that would wipe out all the earth. No one else knew until it was too late. The writer of Mattityahu (Matthew) urges us to be ready, much like a wise man who guards his house; much like Noah who steadily worked on the ark, even before the first drop of rain. Reflection / Prayer: Lord, may we never fall out of step with You, especially in these exceedingly dark times. Keep us sheltered in Yeshua (Jesus) and may Your Holy Spirit reach those who have yet to hear Your voice.
