God\u2019s covenant with Noah is the reason He will never flood the earth again.  After 40 days and 40 nights of rain, once the waters receded, God made a pact.  A rainbow in the sky is the symbol of His promise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rainbow formation is the result of light passing through water droplets.  The light slows as it enters a water droplet, bending because of the passage from air to denser water.  Colors generate from inside the water droplet, separating into different hues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

God\u2019s light creates rainbows in the sky and our lives.\u00a0 As we let God\u2019s light enter into our lives, it reflects from within our hearts to the world.\u00a0 Just like the rainbow colors come from inside the water droplet, God\u2019s love shines out to the world from within our hearts.\u00a0 The more light we let into us, the more light we reflect to the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

God promised no more floods.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raindrops are the tiny prisms that allow God\u2019s light to shine through them, creating a rainbow.  As we ground our lives in God\u2019s promises, His light in us floods the world.  He won\u2019t cover the earth with water, but He does desire us to cover it with His love.  In all cities, all nations, we\u2019re to share the good news of Jesus\u2019 with the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our tears can become prisms of light for the world to see.  As we lay our pain at God\u2019s feet, He renews us with His strength.  In our weakness, He is strong.  His light shines brighter than any star, flooding the world with colors of love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lord, we are grateful for the rainbow.  Thank You for the reminder that you will never flood the earth again.  As light reflects from within the raindrop, let Your light reflect from our tears.  Let us all lay our struggles and hardships at Your feet, trusting You have a plan for us.  May we find rest in Your promises as we strive to reflect Your love to the world today.  Help us honor and glorify You in all we do.  In Jesus\u2019s name, I pray.  Amen<\/p>\n\n\n\n
