An Eternal Promise

As I drive down the road through a rainstorm, I see a full rainbow up ahead.  Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet, all stretched out across the sky in a giant arch.  When I look closely, I can see a faint double rainbow that goes from one side of my window shield to the opposite.  It's amazing how light can hit water-droplets in the air just so that white rays of light fragment into beautiful shining stripes of colors.  I remember the story of the flood, how God placed the very first rainbow in the sky.  A sign of His enduring love.  An eternal promise.  Through He may lead you through a storm, refining us, He will always be there by your side, every step of the way.  And at the end He reveals a glorious rainbow.  Though there isn't a pot of gold on the other side, His love and the promise of eternal life is worth way beyond worldly riches; it's incomprehensible.  Let us follow His golden brick road to Heaven!
