under the rainbow

Rainbows are fascinating. They're beautiful, of course, and a wonderful reminder of God's reality and of His promise never to send the all-destructive flood again (although some in Colorado may be wondering right now...). I was thinking about the Irish legend that if you follow a rainbow to its end you'll find a pot of gold. (Although you may have to elude the leprechauns who are guarding it!). The quest for riches is like the desire to find the gold at the end of the rainbow. Just as you can never actually find an end, you can never satisfy the desire. But, just as the rainbow represents God's promise, a better way is to live in peace under the rainbow. That is where the riches are found...beneath the promise of God. The One who invented light is the One who can separate it into its colors and the One who will fill us with both light and color!
Revelation 10:1 Then I saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven, surrounded by a cloud, with a rainbow over his head. His face shone like the sun, and his feet were like pillars of fire.
blessings,
