Then Noah built an altar to the LORD, and there he sacrificed as burnt offerings the animals and birds that had been approved for that purpose. And the LORD was pleased with the aroma of the sacrifice and said to himself, “I will never again curse the ground because of the human race, even though everything they think or imagine is bent toward evil from childhood. I will never again destroy all living things. As long as the earth remains, there will be planting and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night.” [Genesis 8.20-22]
It should be understood that the first thing Noah did upon exiting the ark was to make sacrifices to God.
In all the events that happen in our lives, I wonder if we are as devoted to God first?
Father, may I be found as devoted to You as was Noah. May my acknowledgement of Your rule over everything (my sacrifice to You) be the first thing I do following every event that takes place in my life. May this be a lifestyle for me. So be it.
