Flashes of Lightning, Rolls of Thunder

Huddled and blanketed on our sun porch before dawn, our children gather to watch the light show.  As the dogs tremble, the storm passes and the sun creeps above the cornfield, rosy hewed and dappled in the mist of the morning.  Rainbows, three of them, appear in the western sky.  Now fading, the rumblings of the next round roll and resonate across the pastures, across the pond.

Take a pause in your day and join me in praising this one who is ...

Clothed in rainbows, of living color

Flashes of lightning, rolls of thunder

Blessing and honor, strength and

Glory and power be

To you the only wise king

Holy, holy, holy

Is the Lord God Almighty

Who was, and is, and is to come

With all creation I sing:

Praise to the King of Kings

You are my everything

And I will adore you

(Revelation 4:1-11)
