Just wanted to share a quick reference to a meditation site I've liked, e.g. the Upper Room devotional, on-line daily at this URL---
http://www.upperroom.org/devotional/
The devotional for Saturday, June 25, 2005, which may be found in the archives at the following URL was "Rainbows of Hope" ---
http://www.upperroom.org/devotional/default.asp?month=6&day=25&year=2005&x=109&y=10
Beginning excerpt:
MY high-school physics teacher once observed that no two people ever see exactly the same rainbow in the sky. Although it may be the same sun shining through the same shower, each of us sees the sun at a slightly different angle, shining through a different set of raindrops. Therefore every rainbow is a unique experience for each observer.
So it is with life. Each of us may see similar storms of life. We may also be aware of God's grace shining during those storms. But the "rainbows" that renew hope are unique for each of us. Some we see during a gentle spring shower; others we see through the lens of tears. Each offers the same affirmation of hope that God gave to Noah long ago
Grace and peace to you all this day.
