*Introduction:*

*Ancient people* recognized the *Rainbow* as a sign of peace and of harmony . The ancient Hebrews recognized it as a sign given by the Creator that he wants all living things to live and to flourish in peace and harmony; all clans, all tribes, all colors, all faiths, all nations. That between us there should be no division but mutual respect and appreciation ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป of one another's gifts as well as of our differences. In this way we enrich one another by reflecting to one another the beauty and magnificence of the Creator....

"When the Rainbow appears in the clouds I will remember the everlasting promise
between me and all living beings on Earth ."

๐Ÿ’๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ Once upon a time, all the colors in the world started to quarrel; each claimed that they were the best ๐Ÿซถ, the most important , the most useful ๐Ÿซด, or the most favorite .

*Green * said, "Clearly I am the most important. I am the sign of life and hope. I was chosen for the grass , the trees and the leaves . Without me all the animals would die. Look out into the countryside and you will see that I am in the majority."

*Blue * interrupted, "You only think about the , but consider the sky and the sea . It is the Water that is the basis of life and this is drawn up by the clouds from the blue sea. The sky gives space, and peace and serenity. Without my peace you would all be nothing but busybodies."

*Yellow * chuckled: "You are all so serious. I bring laughter, gaiety and warmth into the . The is yellow, the is yellow, the stars are yellow. Every time you look at a the whole world starts to smile. Without me there would be no fun ."

*Orange * next started to blow its own trumpet, "I am the color of health and strength . I may be scarce but I am precious because I serve the inner needs of human life . I carry all the important vitamins. Think of the carrots, the pumpkins and the oranges . I don't hang around all the time, but when I fill the sky at sunrise , or give you a majestic , to admire, my beauty is so striking that no one ever gives another thought to any of you!"

*Red * could stand it no longer. Red shouted out, "I'm the ruler of you all. Blood, life's blood. I am the color of danger and bravery . I am willing to fight for a cause. I bring fire in the blood. Without me the would be as empty as the moon . I am the color of passion and of , the red , the poinsettia
and the poppy."

*Purple ๐Ÿฉท* rose up to its full height. He was very tall and spoke with great pomp: "I am the color of royalty and power . Kings๐Ÿซ…๐Ÿป, chiefs and bishops have chosen me, for I am the sign of authority and of wisdom. People do not question me. They listen and obey."

*Indigo * spoke more quietly than the others, but just as determinedly. "Think of me , I am the color of silence . You hardly notice me but without me you all become superficial. I represent thought and reflection, twilight and deep waters You need me for balance and contrast, for prayer ๐Ÿ™‡๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธand inner peace."

And so all the colors went on boasting, each convinced that they were the best. Their quarrelling grew louder and louder. Suddenly there was a startling flashof brilliant white lightning; thunder rolled and boomed out. The suddenly Rain
started to pour down relentlessly. The colors all crouched down in fear, drawing close to one another for comfort.

*Then Rain spoke:* "You foolish colors, fighting amongst yourselves, each trying to dominate the other. Did you not know that the Creator made you all, each for a special purpose, unique and different. The Creator loves you all, he wants you all. Join hands with one another and come with me. He will stretch you across the sky in a great bow of color as a reminder that He loves you all, that you can live together in peace , a promise that he is with you, a sign of hope for all for tomorrow ."

So whenever He uses a good Rain to wash the world He puts the Rainbow in the sky, and when we see it we should remember that He wants us all to appreciate ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป, and live with, each other in peace and not try to fight and dominate ๐Ÿคœ๐Ÿป everyone.
