The rainbow that I have put in the sky will be my sign to you and to every living creature on earth. It will remind you that I will keep this promise forever. ~ Genesis 9:13 (CEV)
God cannot tell lies! And so his promises and vows are two things that can never be changed.
We have run to God for safety. Now his promises should greatly encourage us to take hold of the hope that is right in front of us. ~ Hebrews 6:18 (CEV)
SUMMARY SENTENCE
Make God's promises your hope.
PRAYER
Thank you, God, for the hope that you pour into our world through your promises. I acknowledge that a lot of my hope is built on less reliable sources. I'm easily taken in by promises of quick and easy -- new and improved. Help me to shift away from shallow solutions and to lean again on your solid promise of new life in Christ -- in the new creation which you are establishing. The next time I see a rainbow I'm going to remember that you are a promise keeper. Amen.
Since 2015, I've been modeling one way of using the MORAVIAN DAILY TEXTS* to maintain a daily conversation with God.
