For some reason I keep coming back to write about the
rainbow and the many different ways it can be used. If you go back to my archives dated May 22,
2011 you will find how I described the way God used the rainbow to leave a lasting memory in the lives of two young
children who had just received Jesus as their Savior. Then August 7, 2011 I used Roy G Biv, the name
that helps us remember the rainbow colors, to emphasize how we can overcome the
drought in our lives. Today, I will use the rainbow as an example for growing in our
spiritual strength with God.
The rainbow is defined as a bow or arc of prismatic colors
appearing in the heavens opposite the sun and caused by refraction and
reflection of the sun’s rays in drops of rain.
God set this bow in the sky and it has special meaning. It emphasizes a promise and can be thought of as a bridge. Although there is only one thing we have to do to gain salvation, God gives us many promises that, if sought,
will lead us into a peaceful and abundant life.
