Lord, I forgot how beautiful and surreal rainbows are.

I'm outside listening to a cover band. Rain has been on and off and a rainbow appeared.

It's been so long since I've seen one. I can't believe I've forgotten. How wonderous. It's truly proof there is a God. A Creator.

It reminds me of how much bigger You are than anything. Any problem. Any trial. Even any joy. Any situation or relationship. You're so much bigger!

It also reminds me of how present You are. How aware You are of us, as Your creations. You see us in every moment. In the important and in the mundane.

How great it is to have a God like You. And not even just because I feel Your presence. Have we forgotten what the rainbow means? I haven't.

It's a glorious promise. A reminder. A covenant. You promise us when it storms, that it isn't our end. You made a covenant with Noah, giving a sign that You would never again destroy us all by water.

This sign still stands. What a day, to be reminded of You. Your promise. To see a sign from Heaven. What are we, that You should remind us. That You should give us such a stunning sign.

The rainbow today was perfect. A bright shining aray of color. A motivator, to draw near to You. A reminder of Your presence. A gift to us.

Thank you, Lord. For that beauty. For being close to me, even when I am further than I should be. Thanks for always pulling me back home in a loving manner. Thank You for Your loving kindness. What a beautifully glorious God I have in You.

We are not abandoned nor forsaken. We are not to be destroyed. We are Yours.

Praise the Lord, forever

For Your being.

For Your word.

For Your handiwork.

For Your rainbow.
