Genesis 6:5-8 (http://www.biblegateway.com)
New International Version (NIV)
5 The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time. 6 The Lord regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled. 7 So the Lord said, “I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them.” 8 But Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord.
I wonder what he is thinking these days, when it seems that the human race generally does not have time for him, crimes of every nature are getting out of hand, people look to sex, drugs and alcohol instead of to him for happiness and on and on the list goes. I really wonder what he thinks.
If we all make an effort one person at a time to do what is pleasing in God's site, imagine what kinda of peaceful God fearing earth we would live on. Is that the goal we are chasing, to concern our own person with being pleasing to God, or does it even make our top 10 for goals?
