My Devotional Journal: Today’s Our Daily Bread from Leslie Koh …  USE THIS LINK   … related a story about her boss, who was on vacation and received the disturbing news that he may be replaced upon return to the company.  Disquieted, he prayed to God, ”Where are You?” … and momentarily, he reported going to the window and seeing a glorious rainbow, … recalling God’s promise, thru Noah, and giving her boss confidence that God would be in any circumstances that might transpire.

And if my readers have taken in the linked song and meditated on the Scriptures shared today, I’m praying that we all are lifted up by God’s eternal covenant promises of His presence and protection …  anywhere and everywhere we go in life.   Really, … every time I see a rainbow, it lifts me up with the reminder that my God promises His presence and protection in my life … ALWAYS.   Are you with me, fellow Christian?

My Thanksgiving: … Oh, King Jesus, thank You …Lord, … for giving me Your rainbow to remind me of Your promises.

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, … thank You, Lord, for casting Your rainbows in the heavens to remind Your children of Your eternal presence and protection. … Amen
