I saw a most interesting phenomena this morning on my prayer walk. I was out early enough to see the dew laying heavily on the newly planted fields across from my house. The sun was just beginning to rise over the hills. This combination caused my eye to see a rainbow just above the dew laden fields.
What was interesting was that with every step I took the rainbow moved along with me. It wasn’t out in front of me, nor did I leave it behind with the next step. Instead, it moved with me.
The rainbow is a symbol of God’s promises that He will keep. Our freedom is based on those promises. Our victory is grounded in Him keeping those promises. We’re toast if He doesn’t. We need those promises made and kept with each step we take…today. Tomorrow is another day. And yesterday is already gone. I need those promises the moment I have a decision to make.
Isn’t it good that God gives us ground hugging rainbows to remind us that He’s made us promises that if we choose to follow Jesus’ Word, we’ll experience all that we’re looking for in life? As secure children of God, our Father doesn’t give us burnt toast to eat, but living bread.
