A SUNDAY PSALM






Today when Joy and I went outside for her morning walk, I was awestruck by the simple beauty of snow-clad trees on our street. They made me think of this psalm:
 
  
 PSALM 66
 
Make a joyful noise to God, all the earth;
     sing the glory of his name;
     give to him glorious praise.
Say to God, "How awesome are your deeds!"
(NRSV--vs. 1-3)

 
Dozens of churches have cancelled services and activities today because of ice under the snow. But we can "ascribe to the Lord the honor due his name" in his creation and the beauty he has given us.
