Verses 1-5
God began to remove the flood waters by creating a wind which stopped the water level from increasing and began to decrease.
The ark came to rest on the top of the mountains of Ararat. Some believe that because the ark was made with pitch (which is a sealer) on the inside and the outside that it is well preserved somewhere in the snow and ice of those mountains.
In the 10th month on the ark, the tops of the mountains became visible.
Verses 6-12
Noah releases a raven and it went to and fro until the waters dried up from the earth. Then Noah sent a dove, but it returned. 7 more days and it returned with an olive leaf. 7 more days and it did not return.
Verses 13-22
Noah and his family were on the ark 377 days according to verse 14. God told Noah, his family and the animals that they could leave the ark.
Noah worshiped God. God promised Noah that He would never again strike down every living creature.
There is still judgement just like in the day of Noah but Revelation 3:20 says, Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him and he with Me.
Everything that God does is for His purpose and according to I Peter 5:10, we serve the God of all grace.
God gave grace to Noah and his family and he continues to give grace to us as well.
