The Flood

So this past Wednesday Cathy talked to us about The Flood. If you haven't read the story feel free to do so, it's in Genesis chapter 6 and 7. If you don't have a bible check out this link and you can read from here.

In this passage you'll see how God had seen all the wickedness in the heart's of the people and decided He was going to wipe them from the face of the Earth. Noah, one He knew to be a righteous man, was given instructions by God to build an ark. [a type of huge boat] so that his family and animals would be saved when God sent the rain.

When it was all over, God had made a promise to Noah, that He wouldn't ever flood the Earth again. Read about it here

Hint: God put this in the sky as a covenant and we can still see this even today. Can you figure out what it is??
