Genesis 9:13

Much of the world’s beauty is due to clouds. The unchanging blue of a beautiful, sunlit sky still does not compare to the glory of changing clouds. And earth would become a wilderness if not for their ministry to us.

Human life has its clouds as well. They provide us with shade, refresh us, yet sometimes cover us with the darkness of night. But there is never a cloud without its “bright light.” God has told us, “I have set my rainbow in the clouds” (Genesis 9:13). If only we could see clouds from above—in all their billowing glory, bathed in reflective light, and as majestic as the Alps—we would be amazed at their shining magnificence.

This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: I do set my bow in the cloud,. . . and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.

An everlasting covenant, ordered in all things and sure.

It is the W il of G od that human beings should get into moral rel ationship with Him , and His covenants are for this purpose.

Why does not God save me? He has saved me , but I have not entered into relationship with H im.
