God gave Abraham and Sarah their promised child in their old age. This reminds me of my own story, where my father (whose Christian name is Abraham too) and mother waited almost ten years to receive God’s gift of a child (me!) to them. We are Abraham’s seed and heirs according to God’s promise in the Bible.
The rainbow after the rain symbolises God’s covenant with man. This is the promise of God. God values our tears, hopes and joys, hence we can put our hope and trust in Him. The painting can be viewed from any direction, showing a journey of continuous discovery within the mind, spirit and soul.
I’ve chosen Rev. 1:7, depicting Jesus coming to us to rule as King forever. This is a promise that all believers of our Lord Jesus Christ hold fast unto. Like all promises in the Bible, it will eventually come to pass. Amen.
