The rainbow…a naturally occurring phenomenon when light is reflected, refracted and dispersed so that water droplets create a spectrum in the sky of color. God’s brilliance in His creation became His sign to us of no more fear of floods that would wipe out civilization, because of His mercy and compassion. God points to structures to remind us of His promises to us. Stones that became engraved tablets of His contract of kindness; and the cup of wine, a new covenant of love, in Jesus’ blood that was poured, like from a cup, for us. In each, He holds up the promises, if we just would look to Him. Symbols accent and remind us of God’s immeasurable mercy, call for communion with Him, and reasoning for righteousness. He doesn’t want us to forget. He’s gone to unimaginable lengths to show us who He is and that His love is ready for the asking. He desires our joy and well being, and to rise above our nature and the limits of this life to save us from ourselves.
We too can set up structures as reminders that love is around us, and God desires us to know Him personally. Today, what symbol can you identify to keep you looking to the one who knows your deepest needs and awaits your eyes?iPHONE + iPAD
