After the storm: Comes the rainbow...

You're going to go through tough times

A sister related to me the story of an extended family member who was stricken with severe polio at a young age.  His father wisely purchased a mountain ranch with a cabin and warm springs pool built in the early 1900's.  The hydrotherapy treatment was effective, resulting in near complete healing.  Many family weekends were spent at the "Ranch".  The mountain ranch became a literal "source of healing" to family members - a "get away" from the challenges of life.  

After each Storm, the Rainbow will follow

After each storm, we can be certain of one thing: the rainbow will follow.  Storms are often seen as chaotic and destructive events, but after the storm comes a beautiful reminder of hope and promise.  The Rainbow is a symbol of the possibility of a brighter future, a reminder that out of darkness comes light.  It is a reminder that no matter how difficult or dark the times may seem, there is always the potential for beauty and growth.  

Look for the Rainbow after each storm

We must remember to look for the rainbow after each storm...a sign of better days and opportunities to come.
