Lord, we thank You for the rainbow – It tells us that You love us!
Sometimes,
we see a rainbow. Do we wonder about it? Does it have a message for us?
We look at the rainbow. Help us to look beyond the rainbow – to the
Cross. There’s a great children’s song about the rainbow (it’s sung to
the tune, “Early one morning just as the sun was rising … ). It’s a song
about God’s love. “When you see a rainbow, remember God is love. When
you see a rainbow, remember God is love. Yes, God is love. Yes, God is
love. When you see a rainbow, remember God is love.” When the sun is
rising … when the rainbow is in the sky … at all times of the day, help
us to remember that You love us. Help us to look beyond the rising sun
to the risen Son. Help us to look beyond the rainbow to the Cross: “upon
the Cross we see, in shining letters, ‘God is love.’” Help us, when
there’s no rainbow and there’s no sunshine, to keep on “singing the
praise of Him who died, of Him who died upon the Cross” (Thomas Kelly).
