The Deaf Devo from The Deaf Missions in Council Bluffs, Iowa, United States "God's Promises: Bible Reading: Genesis 8:18-22
Scripture Text: Genesis 8:18 So Noach went out with his sons, his wife and his sons’ wives; 19 every animal, every creeping thing and every bird, whatever moves on the earth, according to their families, went out of the ark.
20 Noach built an altar to Adonai. Then he took from every clean animal and every clean bird, and he offered burnt offerings on the altar. 21 Adonai smelled the sweet aroma, and Adonai said in his heart, “I will never again curse the ground because of humankind, since the imaginings of a person’s heart are evil from his youth; nor will I ever again destroy all living things, as I have done. 22 So long as the earth exists, sowing time and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, and day and night will not cease.”

I taught math for 35 years. Because I had a job, I didn't have much free time. But four years ago, my life changed. I retired! Now I have plenty of free time.
One of the many things that I now enjoy doing in my free time is gardening. Gardening is a perfect example of one of the promises God made to Noah and his family. In verse 22 of today's Bible Reading, God said, "As long as the earth continues, there will always be a time for planting and a time for harvest. There will always be cold and hot, summer and winter, day and night on earth." God promised Noah and his family that there would always be seasons in their lives. This promise is for us today, too.
Sometimes we make promises and we break them. But God never breaks His promises. The best promise from God is that Jesus will come again and take us to live forever with Him. Because God always keeps His promises, we can know for sure that Jesus will return.
Praise God that we can always depend on His promises![SAH]
"He [God] will always keep the promises he made to his people."[Psalm 105:8b]
PRAYER: God, thank You for always keeping Your promises. In Jesus' name. Amen.
