But, why don't we stop to bask in the rainbow's colors? We are so determined that there is something else out there that will fulfill us that we miss the beauty surrounding us. We miss the magic of the rainbow. The unexpected pleasure it brings. We miss the promise of God warming our hearts, because we just know there is something more.
The thing is...what we have is right now. We have this moment. To enjoy all that those vibrant colors mean, or to only think of what more it could bring.
Those blues and greens mean that God is taking care of things. I believe that wholeheartedly. He's whispered those words to me in times of wondering what his purposes were. He takes care of those that have passed on to heaven before us. He makes them walk and talk more beautifully than the angels. He gives them a new body. He makes them what he always knew they were, but may never have been on this earth. That is what the promise of the rainbow means to me personally. It's 'never again' as God promised long ago. Never again to flood my soul with sorrow such as that. Hallelujah. Never again.
