The flood story in Genesis reveals God's incredible grace, not just His judgment. While humanity's sin had become so corrupt that divine intervention was necessary, God chose to save Noah's family rather than start over completely. Throughout their year-long journey on the ark, God demonstrated His grace through perfect timing, faithful provision, unbreakable promises, and patient love. The rainbow serves as an eternal reminder that God's grace has been present from the beginning, showing us that the God of the Old Testament is the same gracious God we see in Jesus.
