     I knew it would only be there for a moment.....

I walked outside this morning with a specific goal in mind, but when I saw the rainbow it took my breath away. I walked back inside and gazed from different windows, room by room memorizing the colors. I knew it would only be there for a moment, but I tried to capture every second of it's amazing beauty in my mind. Locked there forever.
Genesis 9:13 I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth.
This week I watched the joy on an expectant mother's face as she shared the new events in her life. Planning the nursery for their first child.
Later that same week I cried with a granddaughter at the memorial service for her beloved grandmother.
I held the hand and prayed with a patient who is now receiving Hospice care.
And celebrated with a young couple on the closing of their first home.
The entire week was summed up in my minds eye early this morning when I gazed at that beautiful rainbow.
Psalms 63:3 Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you. (4) I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name I will lift up my hands.
