In the story of Noah, God concludes by offering the rainbow as a sign of promise. The rainbow is a reminder that flood will never again destroy the earth. More importantly, the rainbow is a reminder of God reaching out to us. God initiates a covenant (a relationship of promise) with Noah and the distance between a God high above and humans down below dissolves.
We may continue to struggle with floods and bushfires, but God’s love continues as God remains in close relationship to all living creatures.
