Takes Me Back to My Dorothy Days

I was Dorothy in our high school rendition of "Wizard of Oz" way back when. I remember loving to rehearse the big Judy Garland number "Over the Rainbow"...and the biggest privilege was singing that song in a jazz rendition with Ken Kilian's orchestra playing along. Pretty sweet experience for a high school senior.

So when we saw BOTH SIDES of a rainbow arching over our property on our way home from church last night, I couldn't help but think back to those Dorothy days.


The neat thing is that, I never really thought much back then about the significance of a rainbow in God's plan for our world. Twenty-one years later, I am older, perhaps "wiser", but also more hopeful as I consider His promise of restoration!

I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth.--Genesis 9:13

Beautiful rainbow!

I didn't know you were in a musical?! How cool is that!

Yeah, but you have to keep in mind that our school only averaged about 35 kids per class. So it was not unusual to be in "everything" (music, drama, sports, clubs) at a small school like that. Plus I was a big theater geek; my college minor is theatre!
