Summary: "Unfinished Rainbows and Other Essays" by George Wood Anderson is a collection of reflective essays written in the early 20th century. The essays explore themes of faith, hope, and the human experience as they relate to the divine. The opening essay, "Unfinished Rainbows," uses the metaphor of a rainbow to discuss the fullness of God's promises and the perspective we must maintain to recognize and receive these assurances in times of sorrow and hardship. The opening of "Unfinished Rainbows" introduces the idea that life’s challenges can obscure the beauty and blessings inherent in our existence—much like clouds that obscure a rainbow. Anderson articulates that these rainbows, representing God's unwavering faithfulness, can often go unseen due to the thickness of our grief or despair. Through vivid imagery and biblical references, he emphasizes the importance of maintaining faith and perspective to behold the full spectrum of life's promises, urging readers to look beyond their immediate struggles to see the divine assurance that lies beneath. This sets a reflective and spiritually uplifting tone for the collection, suggesting that the essays will continue to delve into such themes of wisdom and hope.
