…they make refrigerators to make up for the slump in sales!

This morning when I arrived at work I looked up at an old fridge we have in creative services and saw the Ford logo.

It’s difficult to see, but in the picture below taken on my Treo, if you look to the right, you can see the fuzzy Ford logo.

Katie pointed out to me the verse at the bottom the previous post.  I don’t remember reading that before (Dr. Outlaw, I am sure I did read it in OT Survey…I just don’t remember it).

Anyway, what an amazing passage about passing along what matters most.

Psalm 71:18

¹⁸ Even when I am old and gray,
do not forsake me, O God,
till I declare your power to the next generation,
your might to all who are to come.

This is old news now (from last fall), but I just discovered this…

Man Builds Noah’s Ark (exact scale given in Bible)
Working Replica of Noah’s Ark Opened In SCHAGEN, Netherlands .
The massive central door in the side of Noah’s Ark was opened the first crowd of curious townsfolk to behold the wonder. Of course, it’s only a replica of the biblical Ark , built by Dutch Creationist Johan Huibers as a testament to his faith in the literal truth of the Bible.

The ark is 150 cubits long, 30 cubits high and 20 cubits wide. That’s two-thirds the length of a football field and as high as a three-story house. Life-size models of giraffes, elephants, lions, crocodiles, zebras, bison and other animals greet visitors as they arrive in the main hold. A contractor by trad e, Huibers built the ark of cedar and pine. Biblical Scholars debate exactly what the wood used by Noah would have been.

Huibers did the work mostly with his own hands, using modern tools and with occasional help from his son Roy. Construction began in May 2005. On the uncovered top deck – not quite ready in time for the opening – will come a petting zoo, with baby lambs and chickens, and goats, and one camel.

Visitors on the first day were stunned. ‘It’s past comprehension’, said Mary Louise Starosciak, who happened to be bicycling by with her husband while on vacation when they saw the ark looming over the local landscape.

‘I knew the story of Noah, but I had no idea the boat would have been so big.’ There is enough space near the keel for a 50-seat film theater where kids can watch a video that tells the story of Noah and his ark. Huibers, a Christian man, said he hopes the project will renew interest in Christianity in the Netherlands , where church going has fallen dramatically in the past 50 years.

Now that I am old and gray…give me the time to tell this new generation (and their children too) about all your mighty miracles. Psalm 71:18
