reach for heaven

false gods (psalm 97:7)

Confounded be all who worship carved images
and delight in false gods!

delight (psalm 111:2)

Great are the deeds of the Holy One!
They are studied by all who delight in them.

my take on the classic image using a cross centered underneath a rose window (a traditional symbol for mary).

silence in the temple (psalm 48:9)

We have waited in silence on your loving-kindness, O God,
in the midst of your temple.

let the rivers clap (psalm 98:8)

Let the rivers clap their hands,
and let the hills ring out with joy before the Holy One,
who is coming to judge the earth.

here is the church, here is the steeple...
