Waiting on God’s Timing (Genesis 8:10–14)

By the time God finally commanded Noah and his family to come out of the ark, they had been on the ark together, along with the animals, for a year and ten days. We can only imagine what an eternity that must have seemed like. But as always, God’s timing was the right timing.
