The Colors of Hope


“God, help me to look for answers
and work at discerning Your call.
Help me to grasp, as Joseph did,
when feeling abandoned by all.”
As I prayed again for vision
for clarity to understand
I looked up to see a rainbow,
full palette, stretched out, in a band
of brightly arrayed perfection,
a ribbon rolled out, edge to edge
and in those colors, a promise
God’s signature signed with His pledge
that He is eternally with me
each step of this long weary way.
but there is one thing He asked of me;
that I must remember to pray.
