many colors

Tuesday February 24^th, Genesis 9: 16 When I see the rainbow in the sky, I will always remember the promise that I have made to every living creature. 17 The rainbow will be the sign of that solemn promise. When we see a rainbow, it is not a solo experience.  We are not the only ones to see it.  It is caused by the rain and sunshine which falls on the good and the bad, friend and foe alike.  The curved encompassing shape is a reminder that we live in community on this planet and are called live like we understand that. The old ways of tribalism, racism, sexism and nationalism are not part of God’s intent. We are called instead as stewards of this world and brothers and sisters with one another. What does that mean in your life today? What are you doing to help save this planet given to us by God, to help save relationships given to us by God, to help save an economy that will lift all the boats not just the yachts, and to bring justice as God views justice to the world? When you work with God, you become part of the rainbow that comes in many colors and surrounds all creation with beauty and promise.
