Single Rainbow

We are not sure how many of you have seen the video: “Double Rainbow,” but a link to the YouTube video is HERE. Anyway, we really like this weird video and have seen many other videos online mocking the original. While driving in Quakertown this evening, we saw a rainbow in the sky.

Amy grabbed her iPhone and could not resist making her own “Single Rainbow” video.

All kidding aside, it had been forever since the last time we saw a full rainbow from end to end. It was truly beautiful and we could not help but be reminded of the meaning of the rainbow.

And God said: “This is the sign of the covenant which I make between Me and you, and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth. It shall be, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud; and I will remember My covenant which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh. (Genesis 9:12-15 – NKJV)

So the next time you see a rainbow, remember that God judges sin. However, He is merciful and He made a covenant of grace with Noah and the animals that He would never again judge with a worldwide flood. The rainbow, as a symbol of Christ, reminds us that He is the mediator between man and God and that those who receive the free gift of salvation are presented faultless before their Creator.
