Rainbows teach me to trust

I promise.
Somehow when I hear God speak those words, I know that I will one day see that promise. No matter how impossible it seems. He said once that no matter what you see on the outside it doesn't it doesn't matter. The real stuff is on the inside. When He says stuff like that, I just sit there with my mouth wide open and in humility because I know He is right. I saw it in my own life. His promises from the very beginning, after all, came true. Maybe with some time and hard work but they always came true. He kept His promise to Abraham, didn't He? So why am I stuck on the smaller promises to me? It just puts things into perspective right?
God has been speaking to me about a certain thing for more than year now. And every day I have heard Him say “Trust Me.” For the last few months I have seen a rainbow or heard the word promise every day. I think He is trying to tell me something important. I think He wants me to trust and hold on to Him. That is what I am doing right now. When He speaks about this promise I have this peace that surpasses understanding. I know that everything is going to be ok. That’s when I realize how BIG my God is. Because He cares enough about the little stuff in my life, He would tell me every single day to trust Him.
I trusted Him enough to devote my life to Him so trusting Him with other things should be easier right? Well, it seems like a big struggle for me at times, but I do know something. I know that my God is good and no matter what happens with this promise, I now that God is still good. So with the Promise that has stuck since the beginning of time I will praise Him no matter how my life turns out. He is constant and always works things out for my good. I just need to trust Him.
That, my friends, is all I need to know.
And God said, “This is the covenant I am making between me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come: I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become the flood to destroy all life. Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on earth.” So God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant I have established between me and all life on the earth.”
Genesis 9:12-17
