The Joy of Ordinary

A Sign and A Promise

Saturday, we went down towards Houston to watch Jack play his last soccer game.  On our way home, we marveled in the beautifully lit dark stormy skies off to our east.  We saw showers a few times on our way home.  As we came up the hill to our road, we saw a rainbow.

I doubted that as we turned the corner (and subsequently the angle) and drove to our house that I’d still be able to see the rainbow.  But, as we pulled into the driveway, the rainbow was shining over our house.  I wish I’d taken a pic from our driveway, but alas, I didn’t take any until I got into the backyard.

Sunday, as I prepared for church, I marveled at that rainbow and God’s promises.  We’ve been healing around here and it was a great reminder that God isn’t going to flood us out.  He’s certainly not going to give us more than we can handle.  He made his bow in the sky a covenant with Noah, his family, and his people.
