October 13
It was past six in the evening when i stepped out of my working area for a breather. I always like looking at the sky, and I looked up. Right there, one of the most beautiful phenomenons, unnoticed more often than not. Beginning with red and ending with purple, it splashed across the vast sky like stripes of colours on a painter's canvas.
There in awe, I was again reminded of God's promises and covenant that He made with mankind that He would never again flood the earth with water: "I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth... .. the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh." (Genesis 9:13,15)
Life and hope are gifts that are bestowed upon man. Life without hope is dead, and there can never be hope without life. Hope is a trust grounded in faith. It is the light at the end of the tunnel that gives strength and courage to persevere against fears, failures, struggles and challenges. It is the thread of optimism that preserves sanity and provides reason for pressing on and living. The pot of gold is indeed waiting at the end of the rainbow.
