A few days ago a passenger in my car said; "That sure is a pretty rainbow." There was no rain in sight so I thought she was losing it. Then I saw the rainbow. And a couple miles later I realized it had just rained.
This reminded me of the first rainbow. In Gen. chapter 9 we find the story of Noah and the Ark. Gen. 9:12-16 "And God said; this is the sign of the covenant which I made between Me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations; 13 I set my rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for a sign of the covenant between Me and the earth. 14 It shall be when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud; 15 and the rainbow shall be in the cloud, and I will look on it to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.
