Matthew 24- Heed the Calling

37 For the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah. 38 For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 and they did not understand until the flood came and took them all away; so will the coming of the Son of Man be.

 Noah was told that God would bring judgment on the earth in 120 years.  He spent that time calling the people of the earth to repentance, to no avail.  The people ignored the calling.  So as he continued to call the people he built an ark, for somewhere between 50-75 years...yet people still ignored him.  Jesus will return in much the same way, people being called but ignoring the truth presented to them.  

Lord, help us to be faithful in our calling of the lost!  You will draw them, but we are here to share who you are & what you want from us.  A relationship with you!  Give us faith to continue even as we are ignored...and pray for the lost.
