Some where over the Rainbow......
It seemed only apporiate on Sat. night that a rainbow as bright and as beauitful as I have ever seen
would shine in all its glory at a time when I need encouragment from God the most. I had just finished another tough weekend of my weekend class Christainity and the problem of Racism. This class along with my other urban class this semester and over the past couple of years have rocked my world and turned it inside out and back around again (did you follow that?) There is just so much that is going through my heart and my mind that it is hard to put it all into words. But the rainbow was a beauitful thing that spoke volumes to me, if there is one thing I have learned in my class is that racial renconcillation is only possiable through Christ (amen), and while it is painful to go through this process, (the rain before the rainbow) I am not doing it alone nor am I suppose to slove it alone. It is only through God walking beside me and my brothers and sisters in Christ that we can start to make a difference. (the rainbow) I'm not sure where to start, but I'll hopefully get there sometime soon, through the more I learn and the more I process through things that for some reason I spent the past 23 years of my life not thinking about. (in this context at least). The rainbow was also beauitful because my life is really one big question mark right now, especially what kind of job I will do next fall, I can't see all the answers right now (just like you can't see the end of the rainbow...yeah yeah corny I know but I do love metaphors) But my promise, my hope, and my purpose is in Christ, not in myself.
Yes I got all of this from one rainbow, but man it was a really beauitful rainbow. Here are some pictures of it, that really don't do it justice, but pictures never really can with stuff like this. :) I hope that today you all find something small or large that is an encouragment from God, because they are all around everyday.
Praise God!



Praise God!
