I am disappointed with Global Warming.
Where I live, they give away free sand and empty sand bags for people to use for reducing the effects of flooding. I went and got some sand and wanted to spread it all over my property. As it turns out, I want to be the first person to have beach front property in my city. As it is, we are at about 2200 to 2600 feet above the sea!

Also, if I can get some free lumber: I want to be the first person in my city to have beach front property and a pier. LOL!

I am pretty sure I saw some Global Warming in my garbage can the other day. I have already put 4 cement blocks on the lid of the garbage can so as to keep it close.

Since you like Emmet Fox I just happened to read his translation of Noah’s Ark a few weeks ago from a book called “Diagram For Living”.

Noah’s Ark is titled “Turning the Tide of Trouble”. The one and only single window built at the highest area of the Ark near the roof symbolizes looking up towards the sky, towards God. The only way Noah and his family could look outside the Ark was to look up so they would not look down below and see the flood and fill themselves with more fear. Meaning to think of God instead of the problem (Let go and let God).

“Noah represents the spiritual self and the Ark symbolizes the state of mind we build when we see the problem or trouble coming, a technique for handling a large problem and rush of trouble. Instead of accepting the difficulty or giving way to it or letting it frighten us , or thinking it is inevitable or trying to run away from it we build an Ark, a mental sanctuary, a quiet state of mind, by prayer. You refuse to send out a raven of fear, dark negative thought and instead wait for the dove of peace to come into your soul.“ It covers the seven days, what the animals represent, what wives and sons represent, the 40 days, what the waters mean, the olive leaves, the rainbow, the dry land and much more.

From Emmet’s book “Find And Use Your Inner Power‘
So with Lot’s wife Emmet says “The road ahead may mean difficulty, but the road back leads to failure. The road ahead may be veiled from sight, but you must teach yourself to regard the unknown as friendly. Remember that God is always at the road ahead, but at the end of the road back you will only find yourself”.

He says that Salt represents death in the Bible and to look back symbolizes spiritual death and that we may be in fear, afraid to push forward but we must push forward regardless.

Emmet covers the Tower of Babel, Genesis, Adam and Eve, Virgin Mary, The Four Horseman of the Apocalypse, The Second Coming of Christ in his books “Diagrams For Living” and “Alter Your LIfe”
