Divine Plan

 

 

And the wind blew across the water

A wind sent by God

A wind under God's command

A wind obedient to God's design

 

And the waters bowed to the wind's command

 

The waters fulfilling God's plan

The waters underground stopped gushing

The waters from above stopped falling

The underground waters and

The torrential waters, causing the flood

 

All these waters receded

 

The ark then rested on the mountains of Ararat

The ark came to rest on the one hundred and fiftieth day

Then the window of the ark was opened forty days after

 

By Noah, righteous before God

 

Mighty is our God who rewards mankind

With the bow of His promise in the clouds

 

Mighty is our God who designs the

Master plan of his creation, earth

 

Springtime and harvest, cold and heat

Summer and winter, day and night

 

Seasons and times, all part of God's plan

 

Mighty is our God who divined by his word

To create, the plan of His earth

 

Divine Plan,  a meditation on Genesis 8;   © gillena cox 2008.
