When God tells Noah that "I am establishing my covenant with you and your descendants after you" (Genesis 9:9), it's much more than a mere promise or even a binding contract. Instead, God informs us that it's an "everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth" (Genesis 9:16). Signified by the rainbow, it's an intimate connection with the Almighty that is always there to sustain us, even in the darkest, rainiest nights of the soul.
