Hey, thanks for the references about making a joyful noise unto the lord.
Now, I'll tell you my evil purpose for wanting the scriptures.
I am trying to give my pastor a chuckle and I want to put a scripture
reference in my subject line.
My subject matter will be all about the difference in how the church treats
new comers versus how they treat you over a year later.
I intend to tell him how important sound is to a blind man and how, when we
first started coming to the church on Wednesday nights, this woman who had
been involved in the church for years had always sat by me and sang the
hems.
She is a very submitted sweet soul.  A very atractic personality, married,
peaceful, helpful to the church but the first thing I noticed about her, was
her angelic singing voice.
I was not coming to the church just to hear her or anything but it sure was
nice to hear her when we did come.
Anyway, that's what I got when I first started going to this church.
Now, every Sunday morning, I sit down to worship and what do I get but this
other well established member in his eighties sitting to my right and yet
another, who happens to be my neighbor, in his 70's sitting behind me
croaking like a couple of old pond frogs.
hahahahahhahahahah
It's a joke at the expense of others, and that gives me pause, but it is
just kidding, and I think the pastor will get a kick out of it because he
knows all of the characters involved.
