5 - Rainbows

'I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life. Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth.”' (Genesis 9:13-16) 


Sorry for another weather related post but this beauty appeared outside and I knew I had to write about it. 

Not only do they mean the world will never again be completely flooded, they are, as a sermon once put it a, a reminder 'We're not getting what we deserve. We are getting what we don't deserve.' 

We deserve to be wiped out in another flood. But we're not. Because of Christ, we live! 

Not just a pretty rainbow. An amazing reminder! 

(Plus another reason to be thankful for rain. Without it there would be no RAINbows!)
