God's Rainbow


Pope Benedict visited the Auschwitz death camp during his recent visit to Poland. While he was praying for the victims of the Nazi horror, this rainbow appeared in an overcast sky.

Many thanks to Moneybags over at
A Catholic Life
for alerting me to this story. Stop by and read his story on the Pope's visit to Poland.

I will set my bow in the clouds, and it shall be the sign of a covenant between me and between the earth.
~Genesis 9:13

  1. Beautiful. I just love rainbows. One time I saw a double one right over the chapel at St. Mark's. A reminder of the promise.

  2. What strikes me most about this image is the barbed wire in the foreground. I see a race held prisoner by sin and evil with the Lord as our salvation and savior. The reminder of this victory and freedom is in the rainbow behind us all, supporting us always.

  3. I think the juxtaposition of the barbed wire with the rainbow makes this picture quite meaningful.
