Genesis 9:1-17
Today's Scripture
I am a visual learner--I remember things best when I can see them or read them. Sounds and voices register for awhile--but when I see words in print or pictures, I can more easily recall these images.
When God gave Noah the covenant that he would never again flood the entire earth and destroy mankind in such a way, he sealed it with a beautiful picture--a rainbow. Whenever we see rainbow in the sky it reminds us of God's faithfulness--that he keeps his promises. Even when storms come--when rain falls and wind blows--God's rainbow can be seen. He is our peace in turmoil, our calm in times of trial.
Thank you God, for being a promise keeper and for the beauty of your rainbow.
