You do not see a rainbow on a cloudless, rainless day.
You see the rainbow when there are clouds and rain.
So the most beautiful and most valuable experiences of your life will not be in the day of the unclouded sky and the serene sunlight, but in the days of adversity and of sorrow and trial.
Then God's greatest and most gracious truths proclaim themselves across the firmament of our life.
"Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters,[a] whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance." James 1:2-3
