Gratitude: Day 8 - Double Rainbows

With rain showers that foreshadow a winter in the wings, we've been blessed with an abundance of rainbows in recent days. My sightings of these rainbows are always at the beginning and end of my day, and it makes me smile on the inside because if I can't catch a sunrise or a sunset, well then, a rainbow is the next best thing.

This photo certainly doesn't do a double rainbow justice, but I suppose you had to be there (just ask the guy in this Youtube video - ha!).

(do you see it?)

Today, I am grateful for these beautiful displays of color. When I see a rainbow, I always think of God. Sure, it can be explained with a combination of words like the sun, the rain, wavelengths of light refracting at different angles...but in the big picture, I see it differently: we're here because of God. The earth is His creation. We are His creation. So in my eyes, that rainbow?

His.

Happy Weekend, friends. Be blessed.

  1. I will most certainly take looking at this rainbow over watching the 2ft of snow that's coming down today!

  2. Sometimes the most treasued things in our lives cannot be purchased or held in our hands. Small and simple things usually make us most happy and a rainbow is something to be happy about.

  3. I am in constant amazement that some people don't recognize that there is indeed a loving God. Especially when I see a rainbow! Hope you are doing well pretty lady- with no more headaches!
