Rainbows...

…are such beauties!!

I love the sight of em for they truly remind me of many things such as the creativity of God and the existence of hope… A bridge between a widening gap in relationships, a twist of change when hopeless becomes hopeful… A symbol of hope, peace and unity… A promise that things will get better from the way it already is!!

“If you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.” Ain’t it true? In other words, scientifically, you will not see a rainbow if you don’t experience the rain. In the same way, it is usually the trials and testings that God brings us through not to make life difficult for us but rather to show us that despite the tough times, there still is something better for us to look forward to at the end if we persevere enough to see it come to past… Most importantly when we look back at it, we can testify that it is through experiencing and persevering in the “rain” (and sometimes even “thunderstorms”) that we can now enjoy the “rainbow.”

To me, a rainbow symbolizes something good… A miracle, a promise… A covenant that says no matter how hard a situation may be, there still is hope… At times when I look at things that doesn’t seem reassuring, or even those that did not work out at all, the question tag in my mind is no longer “why?” but “who?” It is not “why are things not working out the way it should be?” but “Who makes it work out for our own benefit?” It is then that I choose to cling on to Him for He NEVER breaks His promise… Often times, when I see a rainbow, it reminds me of God’s faithfulness in my life throughout the years… it’s like as if the rainbow is there to be a constant reminder of how precious we all are to God and that we should never take our lives for granted… or God Himself for this matter…

Rainbow… A sign of greater things ahead, of greener pastures once we have walked through the dessert… Speaking of which, I have not seen a REAL rainbow for quite some time now, heh… Wonder when I get to see one, haha :p
