The Covenant

- What could God be thinking at the current moment?
- He must be so displeased with mankind.
- He loves us anyway.
- He's faithful and will remain the same.
From the Holy Scriptures, this beautiful arch of colors is actually a sign of the covenant God made with Noah. He promised to never again destroy the earth by flood for the judgment of sin.
In Genesis 9:12-16 (ERV):
“I will give you something to prove that I made this promise to you. It will continue forever to show that I have made an agreement with you and every living thing on earth. I am putting a rainbow in the clouds as proof of the agreement between me and the earth. When I bring clouds over the earth, you will see the rainbow in the clouds. This agreement says that a flood will never again destroy all life on the earth. When I look and see the rainbow in the clouds, I will remember the agreement that continues forever. I will remember the agreement between me and every living thing on the earth.”
I feel like every time a rainbow appears, God is so disappointed with men but because of His love and faithfulness, remembers His promise instead.
Hence my fascination for rainbows...
