Look at the rainbow and praise its Maker; it glows with a surpassing beauty.

Sirach 43:11

Reflection: Whenever our eyes feast on a spectacular scene--such as a magnificent landscape, or a splendid sunset, or a beautiful star-studded sky--let us realize that it is only a pale reflection of the Divine Beauty. Let us then bless the Lord as being the sole source of all good.

St. Theresa of Avila

Prayer: Almighty Creator, teach me to appreciate the wondrous things You have made. Grant me the grace to see You in each of them and give You the praise and glory owed You.
