Over this past year our family has witnessed countless rainbows. I love rainbows, they hold a symbolic reminder of God’s promises; they hold a sense of mysteriousness for me and yet they reveal a glimpse of God’s glory. It is like he is showing off for us! I have seen so many rainbows this last year that I’ve begun to wonder why. I’ve never in my life seen so many so often. We have seen full double rainbows, half and partial rainbows.
My favorite rainbow siting was spotted right after a quick but marvelous summer thunderstorm just as the sun was setting. To the right of us the clouds were tightly woven together mixing shadows and brilliant color as only God can do. The air smelled new and sweet and in front of us the clouds were thinner revealing a gorgeous double rainbow; we could see it all the way down to where it faded right into the ground!
It was breathtaking, I hope each of you gets to witness this sweet beauty personally at some point.
There is beauty everywhere, there is good for those who look for good. There’s more to see than what meets the eye.
