Notes on Genesis I The Faith of the Raven and the Faith of the Dove Bedtime Bible Story
-
- Christianity
The raven was sent out by Noah to see if the waters have receded. However, the raven does not return even though there is no place for it to rest its feet. On the other hand, the dove was sent out and it returned when there was no land to rest upon. It then went out and came back with an olive leaf showing that the waters are abating. When it didn’t come back the third time, Noah knew the waters had completely abated. In spiritual life, the most important thing is not that we should labor and do something. True spiritual life comes about when we surrender to God And let God lead my life. That is the most blessed life and that is the faith of the dove.
