Rainbows represent God’s covenant promise between man, animals and the Earth.

Genesis 9:13-16

13 I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth.
14 Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds,
15 I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life.
16 Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth.”

Dating a woman who has found her peace isn’t for everyone. She’s not the kind of woman who will argue for hours, begs for attention, or tolerate chaos. She’s fought long and hard to create the calm she lives in now. She’s healed wounds you’ll never see. She’s let go of people she once thought she couldn’t live without. And because of that, she guards her peace like a treasure. She’s clear about her boundaries. She won’t entertain confusion, mixed signals, or half-hearted effort. She doesn’t have the patience for games, and she’s not interested in fixing a man who doesn’t want to be whole on his own. If you’re not coming with clarity, consistency, and care, don’t expect to get close to her. With her, you don’t get unlimited chances. You get one. Maybe two if she sees something worth saving. But she’s not the woman who sticks around to teach you how to love her. She expects a man to already know the value of respect, loyalty, and intentional effort. Say the wrong thing, move selfishly, or take her for granted and she won’t yell, cry, or beg. She’ll simply remove herself. Silently, gracefully, and without a second thought. And once she’s gone, she’s gone for good. Not out of pride, but out of deep self-respect. Because when a woman finds peace within herself, she refuses to let anyone disrupt it. She knows that protecting her peace is an act of love and she loves herself too much to stay anywhere that feels chaotic, draining, or uncertain. Dating a woman who’s found her peace is a privilege, not a right. And if you can’t match her peace, don’t expect to keep her. - unknown author

I’ve been guilty of this behavior, and I’ve repented. No one is perfect! Show grace, and you will receive grace! - mjm

“Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye. (Matthew 7:3-5, NIV)
