Our Promise.

It was raining earlier and my mom and I were leaving a store. As I got into my car, I saw a man next to us take out his phone and take a picture of something. At first I thought he was taking a picture of a sign, but then I realized he was taking a picture of the rainbow.

"And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth."
~ Genesis 9: 15-16

Hmm...I started to think of the verses above ^ and I remembered the covenant that God had made with us. I remembered how the rainbow was a sign of God's undying love for us. And how God would never hurt us.

I wasn't having an AMAZING week or anything, so when I saw the rainbow it brightened up my day. Just thinking about God's love put a huge smile on my face and I felt better. Like I had more life? haha. Like I was full of energy. I don't know what it was but I felt more lively or something. haha. I can't really put it into words how I felt.

I feel like seeing that rainbow today was God's way of saying to me that everything's gonna be okay. That all I have to do is leave it in His hands and He will take care of everything. Because He wants to do that for me. God doesn't like to see us struggle or cry or whatever it is. He wants to see the smile on our face. The beautiful smile that He created. Isn't it an amazing feeling knowing that God will take care of all your worries? You get a feeling of reassurance and suddenly things just get better. It's as if all the weight resting on your shoulders has been lifted up. And it is solely because God took it. He carries the weight of the world, but only when you let him. :)
