“God’s Rainbow”

Our church has a large stained glass dome in the center of the sanctuary’s ceiling. There is a cross on the front wall to the left side (approx. at a 10 O’clock position, if that helps you envision it). At the hour of the service which we attend, the sun shines just at the right angle to create a rainbow directly over the cross. As the service progresses, so does the rainbow. It moves across the altar wall, eventually ending up on the right side of the altar area.

The other Sunday, as we sat meditating prior to the service, a thought came into my mind which wouldn’t let go of me. I thought I’d share it with you. It’s simply leveraging the colors of the rainbow for a Christian acronym---Red Orange Yellow Green Blue Indigo Violet:

“R”=Reverence
“O”=Obedience
“Y”=Yeast (approach God in Sincerity and Truth: “Purge out…the old leaven…that you may be…not be of malice and wickedness…but of sincerity and truth." I Cor. 5:6b-8)
“G”=God
“B”=Blessed
“I”=Involvement
“V”=Victory

A meaningful relationship with God comes from “Reverence, Obedience, Sincerity and Truth which results in God Blessing us through our Involvement, resulting in Victory here and in the life hereafter!”

Blessings Always In All Ways,

Steve
