Genesis 8 – When disaster strikes

“But God remembered Noah and all the wild animals and the livestock that were with him in the ark”

In the flood narrative Noah is on the ark for a long time; aimlessly drifting with no land in sight. There is no where to go. There is nothing anyone or anything on the ark can do except wait and trust that God will provide for them. “But God remembered Noah”. God did not forget those on the ark, but that does not mean that God gave them an instant escape. God had provided the ark to begin with, then God provided for them and kept them safe while they were on the ark, then God provided for them until they could depart from the ark.

If we listen to God, God will provide for us in advance of the disasters that strike our lives. If we trust in God , God will give us strength, endurance and patience to weather the disasters that strike our lives. If we give thanks to God, we will keep near to God after the disasters that strike our lives.
