I was out to see a couple of old co-workers for "coffee" last night. It's been really icky weather here this summer. LOTS of rain. Last night was no exception. As I left the coffee shop around 9pm and started to drive home I spotted those beautiful rainbows in the sky. As I got closer and closer to home they kept getting closer and bigger. When I was close to our neighborhood I could see 1 full rainbow arching over our subdivision and the twin just beside. I couldn't help but be in awe. Yes I did take some pictures while behind the wheel but I was stopped at lights I promise.
I can't help but think back to the story of Noah and the flood and God's promise to them when the flood waters receded. That promise represented by a rainbow. Maybe last nights rainbows were just for me (I'd like to think that), my sign/promise from above that things will be ok. I really hope I am not setting myself up for further disappointment. Maybe one day we'll have our rainbow, maybe we won't. But one day soon I would like to be able to find peace with whatever future is in store and to be happy again.
Oh yeah I was thinking this morning about how the two rainbows also remind me of those two elusive lines on an HPT. Test line and control line. You know you've been ttc too long when....

You know how I feel about rainbows and how God has used them for me in the past. I'd say take the comfort you can from them and know that everything WILL be OK, no matter what the outcome!
