Over the rainbow

I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth.
Genesis 9:13

In the past few weeks life has thrown many curve balls at me, each day I begin with my daily prayer and ask God what is it I need to do to change me, so I can handle all that is being thrown at me. I have been getting seriously bad headaches, a unusual stiffness in my neck and various other health problems, yes I know its all stress related. Today I had to take my mom to the chiro, something I've been doing at least three times weekly for the past four weeks, now my moms house is about 12 miles from my house, but the road I must take has 14 traffic lights. So on a lousy day like today it was raining, even though I left as early as I could I could still see I was going to be late. And yes you guessed it I got every single traffic light. I could feel my head starting to hurt, okay so I finally get to my moms town, I turn off this highway and damn smack in front of me is one of those street cleaner trucks, going as slow as a fish swimming backwards. Good gosh, headaches getting stronger. I finally get to moms house and she is annoyed because I am late, (are you frickin kidding me) I smile, put her in the car start driving and before I even say boo, a bus is in front of me, stopping every three blocks to let off or pick up people. In a very irrate voice I said to God, What, what do you want me to learn from this, a bus a street cleaner, what, I get to the next stop sign, the bus turns and as it turns I can see overlooking the bay right at the NYC skyline and there across the sky is the biggest and brightest rainbow.the message to me today in this scripture and events is clear, I must take care of my inner soul and spirit before I can take care of anyone else. that and to find a different route to moms house
