The first day of summer and God’s promises

The first day of summer and God’s promises

In our Bible class on Sunday, in which we studied the flood in Genesis, we read another one of those verses I never noticed before:  “While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not cease” (Genesis 8:22).

 It isn’t just the rainbow but the ordering of nature in time, the reliability of day following night,  and the cycles of the seasons that are signs of God’s reliability in change, that He keeps His promises.

This is a good verse to contemplate today,  the first day of summer.
