While we read the story of Noah’s ark to our kids, the story is an account of God’s judgment on the human race for “every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart [being] only evil all the time.” (Genesis 6:5). Despite our sin, God makes a covenant with Noah: “As long as the earth endures there will be spring time and harvest!” How is this possible? The sign of this covenant; the bow, is pointed straight into the heart of God!

As a Rabbi who invited people to follow Him, Jesus taught a new way to live. But, even more importantly, Jesus lived a new way - a way that was backwards and upside down. Though he held power over sin and death - and the whole world - Jesus came as a Servant King, to die, in order to bring salvation to His people. We are invited to embrace Him as our King. And we are invited to become like our King, living lives that are characterised by extraordinary boldness and extraordinary humility.

Would you say there was a time in your life when you felt closer to God than you do right now? What happened? Just like when we visit the doctor and they check our heart, God wants to check the spiritual condition of our heart. In the parable of the sower and the seed Jesus challenges us to examine the condition of our heart - is it hard, is it shallow, is it crowded, or is it open? An open heart will always say, “I will do what God says even when it’s hard.”
