The Breath From A Sigh...

Yesterday was a dismal day. Gray, rainy, icky. The kind of day that makes one wish they'd stayed at home in bed. There were times throughout when the drizzle turned to a downpour, then back to a drizzle again. Finally, toward the end of the day, the waterworks stopped.

I got into my car a little after 4:30 and as I pulled from the lot, I noticed the most brilliant rainbow that I had ever seen. Each color was so distinctive and so radiant that it looked like a tapestry in the sky. Like you could physically reach out and touch it. As I rounded the corner, I saw the other end....equally as brilliant, and mirrored by a second rainbow....more faint in color.

As I was drawn into the magic of color, Chris Tomlin's "Indescribable" started playing. The moment was perfect. If you are not familiar with the song, here are the lyrics.....

From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
Creation's revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring
Every creature unique in the song that it sings
All exclaiming
Indescribable, uncontainable,You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow
Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night
None can fathom
Indescribable, uncontainable,You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.You are amazing God
Incomparable, unchangeableYou see the depths of my heart and You love me the same
You are amazing God
You are amazing God
Incomparable, Unchangeable,You see the depths of my heart and you love me the same.
You are amazing God

Ahhhhhhhhh........ Yes...You are truly amazing......

I saw that rainbow and it was absolutely stunning...both of them. The dark sky framed it all so well. It just made me smile. Glad somebody else noticed too.
