Reminders are good. I use them everyday or I forget things. There is a kind of active remembering when we purposefully observe something, like a birthday, Christmas, or Thanksgiving. We actively celebrate the value of these things to us. The rainbow’s value is not just in its beauty but in its message. Despite God’s disapproval of much of what we do, He is still gracious and forgiving.
“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 the earth.” Gen.9 Conversations Within ts 11/16/
