Oratio: Passing Storm

The storm passes
leaving behind
the scent of renewal
as the angry clouds
dissipate
a rainbow emerges
in the sky
a loving reminder
of God’s covenant
we will not be washed away
we will not be drowned by sin
He has rescued us
from the waters
of destruction
we need only accept
this gift of salvation
