God's Sorrow

God first made a beautiful world, but later people gradually forgot to love one another, and the world became cold and gray. God saw that people had forgotten how to do good, and His heart was very sad. But Noah loved God with all his heart and treated the people around him kindly. God told Noah to build a great ark and carefully explained how to build it. Noah listened to God and worked step by step, sawing wood, hammering boards, and covering the ark with pitch. Animal pairs came into the ark, and when the rain began to fall, God closed the ark door to keep the life inside safe.
