"I had to pull over just to see if it was real!"

Today was one of those days. You know what I mean... when everything just seems to go wrong. I was tired and stressed out because I had to drive halfway across the state of Minnesota. Plus, part of the time that I was driving, I seemed to be lost! (I thought navigational systems were suppose to eliminate that!) But on my way home, I was checking my rear view mirror (like a good driver should) and what I saw was unreal. It was the most breathtaking rainbow I had ever seen. The colors were so vibrant that I had to pull over and get out of the car just to make sure that it was real! Looking at that rainbow, I felt a peace come over me. All day long, I was letting the little things get to me. In that moment, I realized what a beautiful place God made for us to live in. Yes, we all have our adversities and troubles that we have to deal with in life, but that rainbow reminded me how incredible God's creation truly is. (That includes us too!) Those little stresses are not important when we take in to account that God has a plan for each and every one of us. Whether you are religious or not, when you see a rainbow, you have to know that a greater power is out there watching over us. Today, He let me know just that.
