It’s hard to imagine that it took Noah approximately one hundred years to build the ark. Talk about perseverance! And in the midst of his building the ark, he was constantly ridiculed by those around him. In fact, Noah and his family were the only ones God saved because mankind had become so corrupt that wicked men had become heroes among the people.
Have you ever thought about what kind of faith did Noah had to have to hang in there for so long? In order to persevere, Noah had to hold tightly to his faith. And it had to be strong, solid, and enduring. I love this verse from Colossians that talks about the importance of faith in order to have a solid foundation.
"Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness." Colossians 2:7
Question for today: What does it mean to you to endure?
