In New York, moms started posting rainbows in their windows from their homes. It is said to spread hope to their neighbors and feel connected with humanity as we fight Covid19 together.
I also remembered Noah’s Ark – they were in a huge ark for 40 days and 40 nights as it continues to rain and it is flooded everywhere. They prayed and took care of one another and they were never afraid because they know that God is watching them. It may be stormy now, but remember, the rain will eventually stop and the rainbow will come out. It will be better, soon!
So today, Coco and I made our very own rainbow and posted it on our front door. We live in an apartment type building, and it won’t be seen by the public but I am hoping that my neighbors can feel hope if they see it.
It’s been 17 days (2 weeks and 3 days) since our President Duterte announced the NCR Lockdown aka Community Quarantine due to corona virus. It is not easy but if we continue to stay at home, it will a big help to our front liners who are risking their lives for us, as they try their best to cure those who got affected by the disease. Let us all follow the very simple rule to STAY AT HOME to FLATTEN THE CURVE, because after all of these, we will then find the beautiful rainbow that our DAD ABOVE will paint in the sky.
MAKE YOUR OWN VERSION AND SHARE IT IN MY THREAD WITH YOUR CITY. ❤
It is indeed true that rainbow gives hope to others. I am with you in this message of hope. This pandemic shall pass. ☺️☺️

What a light-hearted and encouraging post! The rainbow was said to be a proof that God’s promises are true. It’s reassuring to know that this situation we are in right now is but temporary. P.S. Coco’s mommy is nailing this parenting thing!

Yeah, it’s that glimmer of the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow that gives us the hope that all of this will end soon! Makagawa nga rin nito 🙂 Teka, ano ang gagamitin ko for Indigo? hehhehe 🙂

I remember God used rainbow as a sign of his promise to Noah and man never to destroy all flesh with flood again. This is a great initiative! Makes people remember that God is here, HE is in control and that everything will be better soon. 🙂

Super natutuwa ako sa ganitong stories, especially that we teach the future generations to be thankful and appreciate the frontliners, lalaki silang may appreciation and pag galang even sa mga cashiers, security guards and other essentials workers. Also yung alam nila to be resilient in times like this and na may rainbow (hope) after all the storms in life.
