Encouraging stories of rainbow encounters
Transcript of Episode 5 :-
Do you sometimes see things in nature that make you feel ‘fuzzy’ inside? What about getting a nudge while watching a film, or you see ‘something’ in your pet’s eyes like they are trying to tell you something?
This episode is about rainbows and the effect they can have.
First of all, the history of a rainbow. In Genesis, when Noah left the arc after the flood had ended, God made a pact, or covenant with Noah and all of his descendants (that’s us!). The covenant promised that God would never again allow a flood to destroy the earth. As a sign of this perpetual covenant, God said he would hang a rainbow among the clouds, a reminder of sorts to Him of the promise He made to all of us.
I am in different Whatsapp groups or chats, like I have a family chat, a sisters chat, a praying moms chat, a dolphin pod chat, and a few others. We share pictures, family goings-on, prayer requests, little stories of what’s been going on in our lives and so on.
Rainbows came up a lot recently, and I had to share a few snippets. I asked two of my very good friends that had had pretty powerful encounters with rainbows if they would share on my podcast. And they agreed! Thanks Mbonabi and Lisa!

I also have a rainbow story! I had been feeling low, tired and worried that I may be sinking into a slump of sorts. I was listening to music in my car trying to shake the gloomy feeling. A song began to play called ‘Talking to Jesus’. So, I started to talk to him, and tell him how I was feeling. I looked to my right and there was a bright rainbow, and it was as if God was talking back to me, saying that everything was okay. And it was.
Thanks for listening to episode 5 of His Calm in My Storm.
