The falling rain dissolves into mist And the thunder begins to die; As the sporadic lightning fades, An arch of colors pours from the sky.
Rainbows appear after mighty storms When things look their worst; Just when the skies are darkest gray, Out of heaven does the rainbow burst.
God first sent the rainbow to Noah As a sign that His word is true; The rainbow's eternal message Still speaks to me and you.
The rainbow is a sign of God's promise That He will guide us through any storm; That He will ease all our troubles No matter what their form.
When you feel battered by life's storms And you are filled with doubt and dismay, Just remember God's rainbow is coming For it's blessing ... you only have to pray.
"The marvelous richness of human experience Would lose something of rewarding joy If there were no limitations to overcome. The hilltop hour would not be half so wonderful, If there were no dark valleys to traverse." ~ Helen Keller ~ "I thank God for my handicaps, For, through them, I have found myself, my work, and my God." ~ Helen Keller ~ Adversity is the diamond dust Heaven uses to polish its jewels. A Diamond is only a chunk of coal ... That made something good under pressure! Every flower that ever bloomed Had to go through A whole lot of dirt to get there! There is no oil without squeezing the olives, No wine without pressing the grapes, No fragrance without crushing the flowers, And no real joy without sorrow. If you want to see the rainbow ... You have to put up with the rain!

After the clouds ... comes the sunshine! After the winter ... comes the spring! After the shower ... comes the rainbow! After the night ... comes the day! The soul would have no rainbows If the eyes had no tears. When it is dark enough ... You can see the stars!
If I can endure for this minute Whatever is happening to me, No matter how heavy my heart is Or how dark the moment may be ...
If I can remain calm and quiet With all the world crashing about me, Secure in the knowledge God loves me When everyone else seems to doubt me ...
If I can but keep on believing What I know in my heart to be true, That darkness will fade with the morning And that "this will pass away, too!" ...
Then nothing in life can defeat me For as long as this knowledge remains I can suffer whatever is happening For I know God will break all the chains That are binding me tight in "the darkness" And trying to fill me with fear ... For there is "no night without dawning" And I know that "my morning" is near.
Wisdom is knowledge of danger but no fear.It is the ability to spot a twist in the path in the distance,a narrow stretch,the possibility of a collision;to stop and wait in peace until something has passed.No wisdom is keeping going,hoping it will all be alright.
Walk and touch peace every moment. Walk and touch happiness every moment. Each step brings a fresh breeze. Each step makes a flower bloom. Kiss the Earth with your feet. Bring the Earth your love and happiness. The Earth will be safe when we feel safe in ourselves.
