Out of the Mouths of Babes

 

            We had just gone through, well actually were going through a very difficult situation.  While some of us saw a “light at the end of the tunnel” still others saw no hope at all.  One morning on the Lord’s Day there was a spiritual breakthrough, many victories seemed to be claimed, the light of God's glory shone brightly into our hearts; there was joy and there were tears.

            As we left church that day, spanning the sky across the street was a beautifully full, vivid, double-rainbow that seemed to jump out at us.  Many people were commenting and pointing. 

It was a wonderfully uplifting sight. 

But not nearly as uplifting as what came out of Autumn’s mouth.  She was with us in the car.  (This is the Autumn mentioned in my “There’s abigANT in the toilet” post.) 

As we pulled out of the parking lot commenting about the rainbow but not inclined to believe in signs; we were speaking about its beauty and vividness.  That’s when Autumn spoke up and said rather matter-of-factly, “God is telling us that everything’s gonna be alright.”



"And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth." Genesis 9:17



"Out of the mouths of babes, Thou LORD hast perfected praise." (Matt. 21:16)
 Just as the believing Israelites praised Jesus for His wonderful works; And just as children so easily praise Him for His wonderful works in creation.  As it is written, “The heavens declare the glory of God; And the ‘skies’ shows His handiwork.”  So too we need to recognize His handiwork and praise Him for the wonderful confirmations of His love and promises toward us...

 “He must increase, and WE must decrease!”

“God is telling us that everything’s gonna be alright.”
