TOPIC FOR ODM DAY 16: THE DAY COLOURS QUARRELLED!
CLICK TO READ 16 December 2023 BASIC SCRIPTURE
Once upon a time, the colors of the world started to quarrel. All claimed that they were the best, the most important. Green said: “Clearly I am the most important. I am the sign of life and of hope. I was chosen for grass, trees and leaves.’ Blue interrupted: ‘You only think about the earth, but consider the sky and the sea. It is the water that is the basis of life and drawn up by the clouds from the deep sea.’ Yellow chuckled: ‘You are all not serious. I bring laughter, gaiety, and warmth into the world. The sun is yellow, the moon is yellow, the stars are yellow.’ Orange started next to blow her trumpet: ‘I am the color of health and strength.’ Red could stand it no longer; it shouted out: ‘I am the ruler of all of you. I am blood – life’s blood! I am the color of danger and of bravery.’ Purple rose up to his full height: he was very tall and spoke with great pomp: “I am the color of royalty and power. Kings, chiefs, and bishops have always chosen me for I am the sign of authority and wisdom.’ Indigo spoke, more quietly than others, but with determination: ‘Think of me. I am the color of silence. You hardly notice me, but without me you all become superficial. I represent thought and reflection, and depth.” And so the colors went on boasting, each convinced of his or her own superiority. Their quarreling became louder and louder. Suddenly there was a startling flash of bright lightning; thunder rolled and boomed. Rain started to pour down relentlessly. The colors crouched down in fear, drawing close to one another for comfort. In the midst of the clamor, God began to speak: “You colors, fighting amongst yourselves, each trying to dominate the rest. Don’t you know that you were each made for a special purpose, unique and different? Join hands with one another and come to me.” Doing as they were told, the colors united and joined hands. God continued: “From now on, when it rains, each of you will stretch across the sky in a great bow of colour as a reminder that you can all live in harmony. The Rainbow is a sign of hope for tomorrow.” The Holy Ghost is today speaking on the blessings, miracles and benefits of UNITY and PHYSICAL GATHERING/FELLOWSHIP WITH OTHER BELIEVERS – even in this social media age! Do not remain in isolation.
