A FREE Friday...it's full of Promise!!

Over the past few weeks we have seen quite a few rainbows. 

More than we typically see even in the spring!  Just this morning as I was hurrying Kolton into his boots and coat the girls ran inside the house excited! 

Come and see!!  Another rainbow!  God's Promise!

Sure enough the sunrise peeking was just enough to shine a bow of color through the morning sky!

Last week, a double rainbow!  Can you see it?

As I dropped off the kids at school and drove to the barn I thought about this promise.  A rainbow is a sign of God's promise, His covenant with us to never to flood the earth again.  The Bible is PACKED FULL of God's promises for his children and it seems when the skies are dark and rain is pouring we find it hard to see the light shining through to the beautiful rainbows. 

The light is there. 

I don't know why my mind ponders promises in rainbows.  Maybe because I have had more days of rain and darkness loom over me than I would care to admit?  Maybe because...(finally, Lord willing) I'm opening my eyes up to actually see rainbows that are really there?   Am I realizing the covenant promised?  His Grace?

“This is the sign of the covenant which I make between Me and you, and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth. It shall be, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud; and I will remember My covenant which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh” (NKJV).

So next time I see a rainbow, not only will I remember the promise of God not flooding the earth but I will remember His grace.  Christ himself showing us the way in beautiful color in spite of this dark dark world. 

AND to celebrate His promises on this YAY...FREE FRIDAY~

~Seeking Grace

Remember that beautiful sunrise I talked about on Friday?  Well here it is!

Just looking at this photo brings me right back to that moment...God is so faithful and good!

The kids did not have school on Friday and with my husband off on a hunting adventure we snuck off to Indiana for the weekend.  I struggled with actually going.  My work load is over the top right now and I couldn't really take a few days off...but my spirit needed a few days of rest.  One of the bad things about working at home (at least for me) is that it is always around you.  I can try and take a day off but with loads of babies scattered everywhere I'm always working on something.  It's always in front of me. 

So though I left Lori here at home with a stack of dolls to sew (sorry Lori) and actually brought dolls along with me to finish with smiles, time away was much needed! 

Psalm 27:8 reads, "My heart says of you, "Seek his face!" Your face, LORD, I will seek." 

...and that is just what we did!

I woke this morning to the crackle of the fire and a beautiful sunrise bursting shades of magenta pink up over the hillside! 

 "He is like the light of morning at sunrise on a cloudless morning, like the brightness after rain that brings the grass from the earth." 2 Samuel 23:4, NIV
