God's Bow

We have the rainbow as a sign
of an everlasting covenant with God,
a promise that will not be broken.
Never again will the earth flood
to take every breath of life from under heaven.

When you look upon the rainbow
please know that God is looking too
and remembering his promise to Noah.
Storms will rage and rains will fall
but his word is forever and his promise is true.

When you see the bow in the clouds-
remember, he changed the course of man
and until the last breath is taken
he holds the world in his hands
and he is still in control.

Genesis 9: Verses 13 &16

Our whole salvation is found in the Promise. Every promise in the Scriptures are fulfilled in Christ. He is the Promise. :)
