Yesterday evening as I was driving through the country I made a realization. I love sunsets. This wasn't really a new discovery, but the beautiful sky was a wonderful reminder. Mt. hood was in the middle with the city lights all around it. Because of the earlier rain, the colors were reflecting in all of the clouds. I decided that a rainbow may have been what Noah needed, but God gave me a breathtaking sunset instead. I looked back into the sky because I couldn't get enough of it, and right then I noticed a triple rainbow stretched across the sky as far as I could see, entering the sunset on either side. I've been busy getting ready for my trip in a week and it was a nice reminder that God is still there and He's the reason I'm going. Instead of the rushed anxious feeling I've been carrying around with me all summer, it adjusted my focus and left me calm and relaxed. I still have purchases to make and things to arrange before I am truly ready to leave, but I am not as worried anymore. God's not shipping me off to a far away land to abandon me. He's never left me before, and he never changes. Perhaps rainbows and sunsets are the perfect combination. :)
