January 3, Day 3

Today's Reading

God keeps His covenants.  We humans are prone to wander from ours.  Every time we look at a rainbow, it should remind us of the faithfulness of God.

Genesis describes the descendants of Noah's three sons.  Japheth's line moved to the north.  Ancient Magog is thought to be modern Moscow.  Ham's descendants moved to what we today call the Middle East, including modern Iran and Iraq.  Shem's descendants were largely nomadic at that time.  Down through the ages, God would call one of them to a Land of Promise.  His name; Abram.
