The Great Flood - My Two Cents Worth

    God brought a flood to destroy the world
      ‘coz mankind had corrupted his way upon the earth

    Afterward, God vowed never to destroy it by water again
       since man was corrupt from the day of his birth 

    Seems the Lord had his cake there, and ate it too
       and that’s my take, for what it’s worth

Sorry to correct you but God said He’d never again destroy it by flood. Now we are looking at…as in the days of Noah, as people go about their business believing God doesn’t exist or thinking He will not interupt their weddings, entertainment and all. I pray for God’s mercy. Hugs (worth a pittance?)

You are absolutely right. 1,000%. Now, the concern is destruction by fire! (Such as nuclear bombs). THANK YOU for the correction, Kim!

I enjoyed reading your fun write. His Rainbow was a covenant never again by water. He said, the next time by fire. Many think it will be nuclear. Guess I need to send you 2 cents. Hahaha!!! Hope you are OK...   Have a fun day writing away.............

Hello Gershon, Since I am a man of the bible, I had to get your two cents, and I think I got a full dime worth. Mankind has been corrupt since the day they ate the apple and perhaps before. Autumn Blessings, MY Friend, Daniel

I do believe God has returned once again, and Spain has taken the brunt of it.

Yes Gershon and he created a Rainbow a covenant to remind us he would never destroy the earth by flood. Thanks for your two cents. Thank you for posting...
