QUESTION OF THE DAY #7: What is your favorite color?

Now that's a simple question, right?  Still it was hard for me to write about.  I spent forever looking for a picture of a rainbow.  Then I looked for a picture that prominently featured my favorite color, red.  No luck there, either.  Finally, letting my mind wander, I took a picture of the least colorful thing I could think of, a plain, boring, vanilla candle, sitting atop my computer.

After several attempts at that, I was amazed at what I saw.  In spite of a bit of shakiness on my part, the complexity of color and light in the photo caused me to take a deep breath! Blacks, browns, oranges, reds, yellows, whites, and it was all so unexpected.

No color correction, no editing, not even that great of a picture, and yet, the miracle of color and light shines through!  Isn't it something that the symbol of hope God gave us after the great flood was the rainbow, with all its colors?  Look at all the colors in the tabernacle of the Old Testament, carefully detailed by God!  Look at the incredible colors of heaven, described in Revelation, with their brilliant symbolism!  Take the time today and let yourself be amazed at the colors all around you. They're all so amazing!  You know what?  I'm not so sure I can limit myself to just one favorite color any more!
