20211106_A Tale of 3 Rainbows : The Faithfulness of YWHW

Rainbow Sighting on 6/11/21 Sat around 6:50pm

Rainbow forwarded by my classmate at about 6:10pm

The video of rainbow sighted along Braddel Road at about 6:50pm

15/10/21 - Played this Rainbow by Kacey Musgraves for SIL

(Tried playing this song in Key of D on my keyboard)

About 3 weeks after I shared this newly learnt song with my SIL on 15/10/21, she passed away peacefully on 6/11/21.  It was  on this day that the Lord blessed me with 2 rainbows - one from my classmate and the other from my own capture.

When I witnessed that rainbow at about 6:50pm, I was so overjoyed.

Simply because I just felt that the Lord knew my heart's desire.

When I was trying to catch one rainbow at the home balcony about 6:25-30pm, the rainbow was just not there.  I was a little disappointed at first.

So on the way to Hougang, from the corner of my eye, I caught the glimpse of this rainbow! 6:50pm!

Reflections

Many people who know me better knew that I am a rainbow chaser.  

Ever since 3/4/2003.  The year my John and SIL contracted nose cancer.

18 years passed on and my SIL passed way on this day 6th Nov 2021. 

Seems that the Lord is really so personal that He just wanted me to be assured of His Covenant of Love and Faithfulness.

I am grateful.

Do you know :-

• That there are 2 rainbows each in Genesis and Revelation?
• That in Rev 22:13 , Jesus declared " I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End"?
• That in Rev 21:1, apostle John saw " a new heaven and a new earth,for the old heaven and the old earth had disappeared"?
• That in Rev 21:3, the promise of God which said " God's home is now among his people! He will live with them and they will be his people. God himself will be with them. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. all these things are gone forever"?
• That in Rev 21:6, God promises that "to all who are thirsty, I will give freely from the springs of the water of life.  all who are victorious will inherit all these blessings , and I will be their God and they will be my children"?

Oh what a glorious promise! What a covenant Loving Father who remains faithful to us even though sometimes we are faithless!

The Rainbow song I sang to my SIL and the sightings of them on her day of passing on.  There will always be a rainbow hanging over our heads. To those who know the Lord.  Those whose names are written in the Lamb's Book of Life '[Rev21:27]

                                    

"Departure is never a pleasant thing.

We can only retain the memories of someone who is close and part of the family"

********************************************************

Indeed, my sister in law had fought the good fight of faith.

Despite the pain and suffering she had to endure over the last 4 years

and the last one month especially in Oct 2021.

Nevertheless, she is now in a better place to come.

This is just a temporal absence.

We will see her again in the near future.

That is the Eternity we long for.

This earth is not my home.

I am merely a transit resident here.

My citizenship is ABOVE.

AMEN
