The falling rain dissolves into mist
-
and the thunder begins to die;
-
as the sporadic lightning fades,
-
an arch of color pours from the sky.
Rainbows appear after mighty storms
-
when things look their worst.
Just when the sky is darkest gray,
-
out of Heaven does a rainbow burst.
God first sent the rainbow to Noah
-
as a sign that His word is true.
The rainbow’s eternal message
-
still speaks to me and you.
The rainbow is a sign of God’s promise
-
that He will guide us through any storm;
-
that He will ease all our troubles,
-
no matter what their form.
When you feel battered by life’s storms
-
and you are filled with doubt and dismay,
-
just remember God’s rainbow is coming –
-
for it’s blessing you have only to pray.

Our prayers may be awkward; our attempts may be feeble.
But since the power of prayer is in the one who hears it,
and not the one who says it, our prayers do make a difference.
