Jonathon Robert Smith, did you know that there was a time when the world was a wicked place full of hate? God was not pleased. He decided to send a flood that would rid the earth of all the bad people. One good man and his family would be spared. Do you know this man’s name?

That’s right, Jon, Noah was his name. God is good and He would never send a great flood without warning. So, God told Noah about His plans. The world is full of wicked men and violence. I shall destroy the world and man with it. Make yourself an ark…(Genesis 6:13,14) ‘Ark’ means a big boat, Jon.

Noah went to the fields where his sons were plowing. Their names were Shem, Japheth and Ham. They listened as Noah spoke. "God has spoken to me and has told me to build an ark. It will be four hundred feet long and three stories tall. We will bring a pair of every living creature. We must begin building the ark now!" said Noah.

Then, Jon, the three brothers agreed to help Noah build the ark. Shem, Japheth and Ham along with Noah started to cut down large trees. They used the trees to make the huge ark. They started early every morning and worked until night fell. The work was hard but they had to do it because God had said that soon the rains would begin.

Soon, the ark began to take shape. When the neighbors saw the large boat that Noah and his sons were making, they began to laugh. They did not offer to help Noah. Jon, do you think the neighbors should have done that?

There were elephants, tigers, monkeys, foxes, elk, giraffes, buffaloes, badgers, snakes, rodents, birds and insects. All the animals arrived in pairs according to God’s plan.

Two by two, the animals walked up the ramp and into the ark. The animals were calm and gentle. Each pair settled into the place that Noah had built for them. After most of the animals were safely on board, Jon, Noah’s family began to load the ark with food.

Noah, his three sons, his wife and his three sons’ wives, brought apples, pears, peaches and grapes. They also brought barley, oats, wheat and hay for the animals. Then they stored clothes and fresh water to last for many days.

At last, the turtles arrived and Noah knew that all the animals were safe. The sky turned dark. Noah entered the ark with his family and God closed the door on them. The rains came. Noah'’ neighbors pounded on the ark and begged to be saved, but Noah would not go against the will of God. He and his family remained safe inside the ark, Jon, as the flood waters began to cover the earth.

It rained for forty days and forty nights. The ark drifted on the surface of the rising water. Flood waters increased and covered even the tallest mountains until no dry land remained.
