God told Noah that He was going to send a flood to
destroy all living things. He told Noah to build a big
boat (known as Noah's ark).

God sent two of each kind of bird and animal to Noah to
load in the ark. He sent more than two of some of
the animals. Noah also loaded his three sons, their
wives, and his own wife. It began to rain. God closed
the door.

It rained for 40 days and 40 nights. Everything on earth was under water. Everyone on earth died, but Noah and his family were safe and dry.

When the rain stopped and the land dried, God sent a
rainbow as a sign of the promise that He would
never again destroy the earth with water.

Noah was a righteous man who loved God very much.
He lived in a world full of sin. However, he was loyal
to the Lord and continued to follow Him, even when
God told him to build a big boat and the people
made fun of him during the time he and his sons
were building the ark.

Can you stay loyal to what is right even if your
friends make fun of you? Are you thankful for the
things God has provided for you and your family?
