Get Noisy

Our Japanese maple spread its leaves in a 

wide, red skirt—a perfectly brilliant circle under bare, upraised branches.

What a peaceful way to go.

I'm plugging away at memorizing Psalm 100. 

Have you made any progress? 

Here's a visual aid—a photo of the Japanese maple before it lost its leaves. *

Our noise doesn't have to be cultured or clever,

sophisticated or insightful.

But it must be JOYful. 

Right here in mid-November, let's seek to bear this fruit of the Spirit.
