Pause for Thought
From Canon Ann Easter, Chief Executive of a Charity and Chaplain to the Queen:
听
Russell's been talking about his new Biblical epic, Noah; the amazing and exciting story of how one good man put his family and all the animals into an Ark and set sail into the unknown.
听
I wonder how they all got on 鈥� all those people in one ship? Sunday dinner with my husband, our three children, their partners, four grandchildren and just the one dog can be quite tempestuous 鈥� and nobody's seasick!! And I gather that the film solves a problem that's bothered me since I was a child 鈥� why didn't the animals kill and eat each other?? But, in the film, they sleep soundly under the influence of incense, then they'll all be safe.
听
So, Noah and his family and the animals survived the terrible floods and God promised that never again would all things living be destroyed, and sent a rainbow as a sign of that promise over the freshly washed world. A new start.
Ahhhh. Bring up the music, cue the credits and let's all go home.
听
But actually, I think this story is not about Noah 鈥� sorry Russell 鈥� and it doesn鈥檛 matter that much if it鈥檚 not all true. It鈥檚 there in the bible to tell us something about what God鈥檚 like.
听
Because, even if we don't know the next chapter of the Bible, we know how people behave and we can imagine only too well how everything was great for a while but the moment someone nicked someone else鈥檚 camel, or chatted up his wife, it was back to square one.
听
God knew that Noah's crew might look all sweetness and light but they were human and sometimes we humans just can't seem to help being weak and selfish - and God knows what we鈥檙e like and loves us so much that our mistakes are forgiven and there听 are more opportunities to get it right.
听
So, a new day, a new rainbow, a new chance to fail better.
