Gods Promise!

Today Alisya and i had to go to our bi weekly check up at the hospital, just to check out how the baby is going. The same old thing with the same old results every time we went, I began to wonder why we have to go every fortnight for this check ups wen it all seems to be going great. Only to realise what a stupid thought that really was, so many things can go wrong, and the smallest detail can mean something totally horrible, something i never want to experience.

On the way out of our session with the doctors Alisya said "look up there", and there was the most amazing complete rainbow across the sky (unfortunately my nokia camera phone didn't do it justice). So i snapped a photo and thought nothing much more of it...but then i realised i had just done it again. Taken what i thought was an insignificant detail for granted.

See what was in the sky when i came outside was a PROMISE from the creator of the universe, the one who formed us out of dust, the one who knew me when i was in my mothers womb, the one who put me together peace by peace, God himself draped that across the sky as a sign that he keeps his promise no matter how much time passes. He keeps his promise despite my choices, he will still keep his promise and will never take that promise for granted.

Then i remembered more of what God has promised us...

• He will never leave us nor forsake us.
• He will never give us more then we can bare.
• We can cast all our cares upon him, because he cares for us.

Thank God he never takes us for granted, the way i take him for granted! The only reason i can sleep at night is because i know he is at the wheel, and regardless of what i have to confront in my life, He will never leave me nor forsake me.

And just like the rainbow - that's a PROMISE!
