We've had a lot of rain in the last few weeks. Last weekend our street was flooded and, while we are above the flood zone, our neighbors are not. We didn't have to leave the house but several of them had to move their cars to higher ground.
Today we had misting rain and Sarah noted that, like me, she loves rain. However, she said that she wasn't happy with the flooding issues.
She commented, "I thought God said he wouldn't flood anything anymore?"
I said, "That's not exactly what he said."
"In the Bible it says he wouldn't make it flood anymore," she said.
"No, he said that he wouldn't destroy the world by flood anymore," I said.
"Oh."
I added, "The next time he'll do it by fire."
"What?"
"The Bible says that the next time God will destroy the world by fire."
Long pause and then she said in a strained voice, "And that's why I don't read some chapters in the Bible."
Hmmm.
