In Genesis 9 God made a covenant with Noah and his sons.  "Whenever I bring clouds over the earth, and the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind.  Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life."

God made his promise and used the rainbow as a sign of a reminder to him and us. Its good when God makes a promise to us.  Its in concrete and its not going to change.

Just another awesome reminder that the Lord is our Rock. He is never changing.  How scary would it be to worship a God who is all powerful but he also changes. 

That would mean in a moment at any given time he could change from a loving God to one that doesn't love.  He could  take back his promises and flood the earth and kill us all.  But he is an UNCHANGING God.  The God we read in the bible is the God today and the God forever. Thank goodness.

But anyway,

I really liked this picture.  The black and white in the picture reminds me of sinful man.   How without God we lack everything and are a undeserving race. This girl almost looks as if she is ashamed.  But this picture made me think of hope.  She is clinging on to hope and grace.  God's hope, That has life and looks so much greater than the world that surrounds us. To me the colors also represent the rainbow with the clouds in the background.  The rainbow that God promised he would never destroy the earth again with a flood.  The rainbow of hope and stability.  She is clinging to this because there is hope.

And that hope only is in God.  We can only find real hope in God. One that is never failing and perfect in all that he does. 

Its November 6 and I am hopeful.
