I am in South Florida after dropping off my firstborn at college...9 1/2 hours away!!! On the drive down I saw two rainbows. When Megan and I drove down orientation in July, we also saw two. I know God is in control of all things. I never thought about the 7 colors, the number of perfection. God is so good.B His Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17323556614583246461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154405870041249691.post-5783696977917281852009-08-19T12:21:53.538-04:002009-08-19T12:21:53.538-04:00Beautifully written post today, Tracie. I started...Beautifully written post today, Tracie. I started reading your blog just before the 5-day challenge and have been blessed so much by it. Sounds like many of us have been encouraged by the sight of a rainbow at just the right time. I associate rainbows with my great-grandmother, who had little prisms hanging from her picture window. When the light hit the prisms, tiny rainbows fluttered all around the room--as a child I was mesmerized by the beauty, and the memory connects me to her as one of my spiritual mentors. <br />Sigh...I have something to say that has bothered me for a long time and I wonder if any of you feel the same--I say this with humility. It pains me that the homosexual movement has adopted the rainbow as a representative symbol. The first rainbow was designated as a reminder of God's promise never to destroy the earth by flood again--it's still a symbol of how God keeps his promises, not anything to do with homosexuality. I hope you understand that I'm not trying to criticize, it's just another example to me of how the world distorts something good. <br />When I see a rainbow sticker on a car in front of me, I am reminded of God's love for the person, and that I should show the same love to them, not judge them. Please understand I have worked with homosexuals and suspect there may be some in my current social circles...and I have learned to love the person yet hate the sin. I just wonder if any other Christians feel the same as I do.The Seeking Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03320267040579899463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154405870041249691.post-20561922338354298042009-08-19T10:09:19.045-04:002009-08-19T10:09:19.045-04:00I had my own rainbow experience not too many weeks...I had my own rainbow experience not too many weeks ago.<br /><br />Through many months of prayers and at times feeling like they were bouncing off the ceiling, God answered my prayer in a powerful way.<br /><br />After speaking so strongly to my heart for two days that I couldn't run away, I realized I needed to stop fighting what He was trying to do in my life. <br /><br />So after having my emotional breakdown while driving, and at one time wondering if I was still on the right road, I saw that rainbow in the sky.<br /><br />I knew then that no matter what still lies ahead of me, He will be there, He will walk through it with me and He is waiting to pour more blessings on my life. Trust Him and stop fighting.<br /><br />Thank you Tracie for sharing such a personal but heart felt moment!Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06536994991268726132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154405870041249691.post-63623542105061792932009-08-19T10:05:09.125-04:002009-08-19T10:05:09.125-04:00Tracie,
See...you leave us with something to ponde...Tracie,<br />See...you leave us with something to ponder (something to think about). Will be thinking about this throughout my day.<br /><br />I had these thoughts....with our world telling us to go go go... How many do stop to look for the signs God shows to us, or... do we miss them because of our own will we are trying so desparately to fill.<br /><br />Through my second biggest trial...<br />You see I like to go for walks to clear my thoughts,and to talk with God on them. One time after coming back with this trial I was starting to see an ending. There on the top of our house set an ALL WHITE DOVE. (didn't get a photo..wish I had). The peace that went through me that morning was OUR precious Maker...telling me... "Well done my good and faithful servant!!<br />..."My PEASE I give to you!!<br /><br />Tracie your a blessing. <br />Rhonda<br /><br />P.S...."Can't wait to read your book!!(SMILES) Left a comment there for you too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154405870041249691.post-1097987965358250082009-08-19T09:28:22.009-04:002009-08-19T09:28:22.009-04:00Tracie,
That is one of the most beautiful posts I ...Tracie,<br />That is one of the most beautiful posts I have ever read on any blog! WOW! <br />We serve an awesome, faithful God who loves to surprise us. I can just picture Jesus' reaction to you each and every time you saw a rainbow that day - I'm sure he called all the saints and angels over and said, "Watch this...See Tracie, she is going to be so surprised. She is going to just love this!" <br />Just like Christmas morning when our husband or children open that one gift that we saved for, hid for months and knew would be the last thing they expected to actually get. This gift was hand delivered, carefully wrapped JUST FOR YOU!!!!<br />WOW! That is just one of the coolest God stories I have heard in a long time - Praise Him!O'Nealya Gronstalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08199511133575540875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154405870041249691.post-53394829270791578512009-08-19T08:48:44.355-04:002009-08-19T08:48:44.355-04:00My blog header is a picture taken from my front po...My blog header is a picture taken from my front porch of a rainbow over our barn. :) I love the picture because it is a constant reminder of His promises...and they we can always count on them!!! He is so vast, yet cares about every little detail our lives. So glad God continues to speak to our hearts.Rachel Beranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00324124235452940506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154405870041249691.post-35599721915551097242009-08-19T08:45:10.741-04:002009-08-19T08:45:10.741-04:00Tracie,

Thank you so much for your post today. It...Tracie,<br /><br />Thank you so much for your post today. It was an incredible reminder of God's love! Almost 18 years ago I God revealed His love to me through a rainbow. I was 17 years old. My mother had just broken the news to me that my parents were getting divorced. My world was falling apart around me. There were so many unknowns. I was driving home one day in tears absolutely crushed. As I rounded a curve I looked up and there in front of me was a beautiful rainbow stretched across the sky. I knew at that moment God was with me and everything was going to be ok. He loved me and would take care of me.<br /><br />Thank you for bringing that memory back to me. I can once again rest in knowing God loves me and will carry me through anything.The Calm of His Presencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05963836766874616080noreply@blogger.com
