Reality Or GOD'S Word(View)? Faith Or Logic?

NOAH'S ARK: designed by armatures, made of wood, probably wasn't a"beaut". TITANIC: designed by experts(at least at the time they were), made of Iron, and most definitely a beauty to behold, and of course the largest thing sailing at the time. Following the statistics(reality), we all know which should be able to better serve It's purpose. But then again we both know the details of both stories.(well if you don't...hmmm, at least I'm glad you're out of the cave! Lol!). You can read the story of Noah in the book of Gen 6-9. I think Titanic has been premiered over a decade ago, so it should be in stores by now, Lol!

Most times, we often look at the odds that statistics imply are against us and It's even worse when we compare ourselves with others(I was at that spot not too long ago), we think if only we were like Mr. A or B,or did things like them, things would be better but then I saw this somewhere, that is, someone comparing Noah's ark and the Titanic. Then I realised my attention had been focused on statistics rather than the truth of GOD's word! The builders of titanic relied on the statistics, but Noah's depended on GOD! It's not the size of the challenge relative to you(because you might always seem incapable), but It's the SIZE OF GOD RELATIVE TO THE CHALLENGE!(now that's more than the right match!).

Now, Faith doesn't disregard reality, but it looks beyond it, and only considers what GOD says about the situation. The man with faith chooses to depend on God rather than his abilities! Faith is an expression of "total" confidence in GOD! Noah never heard of rain before, it didn't make sense, just like Abram leaving his kindred didn't match with reality! Imagine having to leave your loved ones behind to a place you have never heard of and google isn't returning any results for your search! Noah's ark faced more than the titanic ever faced. Icebergs cannot be compared to 40 days & 40 night of rain with part of it spent floating on rocks(mountains), and the water remained for 150 days, but the ark still served It's purpose, and not because it was built to withstand such, but because it was in GOD's care! The Bible says GOD HIMSELF Shut the doors of the ark! So there was no way water could get in! Gen.7:16. Also, Noah and the ark remained in line with GOD's will and purpose! Often times when we try to help ourselves, we find ourselves outside of GOD's will and purpose for our lives! It's not how equipped or positioned you are to face that challenge. It's not beauty nor intelligence(see 1Cor 1:27). When GOD is involved,the statistics don't count! Reality or GOD's word? Logic or Faith, I choose the later!
