30 Little Things: The Book of GenesisSample
The Capability to Follow God.
We know the story of Noah all too well. We know that God told Noah to make an ark because God was going to flood the entire earth and give it a new beginning, for God saw there were too much wickedness on earth. One of the instructions that God gave Noah was written in Genesis 6:19, where Noah was supposed to bring a pair of every kind of animal that lived in the earth. Let us reflect on God's instruction for a while there, 'A pair of every kind of animal'. This means that Noah had to bring with him, in his ark, from the smallest bugs to the biggest mammals that ever existed. What a hard thing to do! Surely Noah doesn't have the capability to go around the world and collect them one by one, right? That is right! Which is why God provided Noah with the solution. God will make those animals come to Noah.
It's amazing, isn't it? God tells us we should do, He tells us what He wants from us, but He also provides us with the capability to follow Him and do His will. He will not tell us to do something He knows we do not have the ability to complete. Even though the tasks ahead seem to be beyond what you can bear, remember that God will enable you to follow His will. He did that to Noah, He will do the same to you.
