Rainbows

I had an God moment tonight as we celebrated my best friends birthday. We were swimming in the cool even air, the sunsetting and scattering light across the clouds that brought a much needed rain, I thought wow our God created all this in just 5 days. It never ceases to amazing me at what beauty he created just for us to enjoy. As I lay in a tube watching the sky, we saw a rainbow appear across the sky. It did not reach the ground but it is still amazing to see something that you cannot see all the time show up and out. This kind of reminds me of our lord, we know he is there, he can be seen in things and the beauty around us but not directly. To my a rainbow symbolizes not only his promise not to flood the earth but also his reminder to just remember that he is there even though some days you cannot see him....he is always there and he reveals himself at the right time...just like a rainbow does not come out till before or after the rain to show him promise. It is so amazing to me how something so small but yet so beauty can make an impact on a life. A rainbow is something everyone will see in their life and will always talk about when they do, to anyone. We as Christians and need to do this with our faith (myself included). We need to tell everyone about Christ like we tell everyone about rainbows. Wow, think about it, what an impact.

Rainbows are so pure and beautiful. They are filled with life and can bring dreams, even for adults. Just like in the Wizard of Oz, Somewhere over the Rainbow....such a beautiful song with so much meaning. A place were all dreams and all hopes come true. Our lord created amazing things such as rainbows, sunsets, sunrises, and rain....our Lord controls all creation. But as we swam, I thought, Wow, how great his love must have been for him to create all these beautiful and wonderful things for us to enjoy daily. Our God is amazing and loves us with an unended love. Oh how I love to sit in amazement of what he can do and has done in my life and everyone our me. :)
