Quote:”God puts the rainbow in the clouds so that God will see the bow and be reminded of the promise of safety for the earth and all its creatures…God makes this promise with Noah and his sons…as well as ‘all future generations ‘(v12). God also states that this covenant includes…you…every animal of the earth with you, as many as came out of the ark’(v10). This covenant is wide reaching and all inclusive. People of all generations, races, places, and times are included…All of us are precious and meaningful to God, and covered by this covenant of promise and safety.(Prayer)God, help us care for all living creatures on earth, in Jesus’ name. Amen.”
