The Bible - it's a big book when you're looking through it for something written specifically to and for you.
The Bible Draft is a fun and creative way to connect your experiences, thoughts, and feelings directly to the words of Scripture. Played similar to the format of a fantasy football league with the commeraderie among players in your league, the creativity of team names, and the personalization of Scripture passages just for you, the Bible Draft is a worthwhile challenge for those who have never opened the Bible before as well as for anyone else at any stage in the journey.

More Meat
| Genesis 8:20-21 | |
|---|---|
| 20 | Then Noah built an altar to the Lord , and choosing from every clean animal and every clean bird, he offered burnt offerings on the altar. |
| 21 | When the Lord smelled the sweet odor, the Lord said to himself: Never again will I curse the ground because of human beings, since the desires of the human heart are evil from youth; nor will I ever again strike down every living being, as I have done. |
The Lord God decides to never again destroy all living things, because he loves the smell of roasting meat. I am right there with You Lord.
This is the first time in recorded history that an altar was used in this way. Abel offered the first of his flock to the Lord, but did not sacrifice them. Noah is offering this roasting flesh to the Lord as a thank you for bringing them through the flood safely. God not only responds, but shows his love for the smell of roasting meat. This brings new excitement for my back Yard BBQ’s, knowing that God is enjoying the aroma. You have to wonder if vegetarians have any thoughts about this – God loves the aroma of roasting meat, and in Exodus He orders the Israelites to roast the meat and eat it; I guess the vegetarian would rather be a slave.
The comment about man being evil from the start, it seems that Abel is the only one of the four who lived up to what the Lord was asking. 3 out of 4 is not a good start, so perhaps man is evil from the start, but this makes it all the more exciting when a man turns his heart to the Lord.
Dear Lord, help me want you, I believe Lord, forgive me in my unbelief. For my part Lord, I will make sure to roast meat as often as possible, just for You.
