The Rainbow
The Rainbow settled over our
house today. I almost missed it. It has been a dragging season and there has
not been much to shout about these passed days. It has been dark, gloomy and
routine. And yesterday it even rained. I’ve soldiered on but why. It has been
full of uncertainty and much wondering of what tomorrow will bring. I’ve been
working hard for a reason to believe. As I walked to the kitchen and found
there was no bread, I could have shed a tear of despair, but did not have the strength
to cry. I looked up at the sky as if to sigh, then I saw it, that great arch in
the sky. I was so sad I could have missed it. Then I saw it. The Rainbow, Gods
promise of tomorrow, right there over our house in shimmering armour. Then I
saw it, the glimmer of hope for tomorrow, and I worked hard to fan the fading
flame. God has not forgotten us. The Sun came out from behind the clouds and the
rainbow faded away. From a dank day it became another day. For a moment I forgot
my hurts and sorrow and took courage to reach out in trust for a Great tomorrow.
This too, is my prayer for you. Today.
