Rainbows after Rain
Discovering God's Grace in Everyday Life
Ordinary moments. Radiant beams of light, love, hope – and miracles.
God sends us a bridge of rainbows on our way to Heaven to reveal His tenderness, care, and mercy. He uses each moment of our lives, from the very moment of our conception, to bless us – and others through us – in amazing ways.
In these uplifting pages, you will see that life is more than just a series of random events. It is a divine story, woven with God’s grace, guiding us step-by-step toward eternity. As Msgr. Laurence Spiteri movingly unveils the sacred beauty of the human journey, he reveals profound lessons about the sacred meaning of your life.
Through the life of Jimmy, an ordinary man living an extraordinary faith, and his family, this book presents a compelling vision of spiritual and personal growth. It explores not only the physical and emotional milestones of life but also the unseen hand of our Father shaping every moment.
You will experience how God enters your life through:
- Baptism, family life, and the joys of marriage, even amid challenges
- God’s mercy in the Sacrament of Reconciliation and through the compassion of others
- Christ’s gift of self to nourish us in the Holy Eucharist and power of the Sacrament of the Sick
- Hope in the meaning of suffering, and comfort in love, even in the face of death
- Practical ways to grow in your faith – and help others to grow in theirs
- Wisdom to discern your own path and raise a family
With an engaging and conversational style, Msgr. Spiteri reminds us that God’s love is constant, His guidance is unfailing, and every storm in life is followed by His promise: the rainbow of His divine presence.
Drawing from the Sacred Scriptures, rich theological insights, and real-life experiences, Msgr. Spiteri offers clarity, hope, and inspiration. As you journey with the characters through life’s mountains and valleys, you will find how each stage of life is a chapter in a greater story, one that ultimately leads us to the threshold of eternal life.
Let this book be your guide to finding God’s fingerprints in your life.

“As a prominent writer on canon law, Church history, Sacred Scripture, and poetry, Msgr. Spiteri explores the moral life, to which every person is called, in light of our ultimate end. This book will help readers comprehend and integrate the actions of the human person as a unity of body and spirit throughout their earthly journey. This is a delightful, imaginative, and, above all, inspiring work—one that everyone can appreciate and reflect upon in relation to their own lives.”
