Lessons From Noah

While our friends in the west are suffering from smoke and fire, many of us in the south have had rain—lots of rain. Jokingly, I emailed my neighbor and told her my husband had started building an ark, which got me thinking about the story of Noah and what we might learn from his example. 

1. Plan ahead. Be ready before the crisis hits.
2. Stay healthy. You never know what God may ask of you when you’re 600 years old. 
3. Don’t listen to the nay-sayers. Listen to your heart and be true to yourself. 
4. Speed isn’t always an advantage. Cheetahs were on board along with the snails and they all arrived back on dry ground at the same time.
5. Seek help when you need it. Travel in pairs and listen to good advice when it’s given. 
6. Don’t miss the boat! Take advantage of what’s given to you so you’ll have no regrets.

Affirmation: I embrace the lessons from Noah.

Coaching question: What’s your take-away from the Noah’s story?
