1 Swede, 1 Singaporean.
Both our worlds collided in 2004, and merged in 2009.
Our base is now Sweden, and our centre always Him.
Propelling towards an insanely exciting future!
I saw this perfect rainbow while on the way home from celebrating midsummer.
It was crystal clear, fully arched, and the first one where I could see the rainbow continuously from one end to another.
It was a beautiful sight that left us in the car speechless in awe (though poor Emil had to concentrate on driving and couldn't really enjoy it :P).
Made me muse about how the first rainbow would have been, the rainbow that appeared to Noah after 40 days and nights of rain, when the sunshine finally burst out from behind the clouds. What a sight it must have been, how awe-inspiring to have heard God's voice speaking through the rainbow, making a binding covenant never to destroy all life with a flood ever again.
God's promises and covenants. He's not a man that He should lie, and it makes me think about all the words that have been spoken over my life up till this point, all the times God whispered to me in the quiet, and gave me dreams and visions for tomorrow. I'm living to live out that dream now, and I seem to be getting there. Sometimes it feels like grasping for a rainbow, always just out of my reach. But perhaps the destination will only come on That Day, when I meet Him face-to-face and I know that life will never be the same again.
It's so good to know that He is faithful and true. That everything can change, but He will never change. That rainbows are as true today as they were thousands of years ago when the first one appeared over the earth and spoke of promises for tomorrow.
