The other day I looked out the front of my friend's house and was greeted by the awesome sight of a huge double-rainbow. As I gazed at the beautiful colors, I thought of how pretty it was.....and then I remembered my rainbow-chasing attempt a few Saturdays ago, and my world came crashing down.
That rain bow no longer stood as a sign of promise and hope to me. Instead, all I could see was empty promises and disillusionment. I think I was even more disappointed after seeing the double rainbow than I was the day I tried to chase one.
Well, God pays attention to our thoughts (and blog postings) and instead of chiding me, He decided to send me a birthday rainbow! I stared at the sight on our way through the valley and I came to the conclusion that rainbows aren't signs of empty or broken promises. They're not symbols of disillusionment or abandonment. The reason you can never find the end of a rainbow is because they start and end in God's hands. His hands hold the world, and His hands hold promises. Without God, there would be no rainbows.
