A
Tree, Planted by the Sanctuary
Read:
Psalm 1
If
one sits on the left side of the aisle during church service,
one
can see large tree branches beyond the beautiful stained glass
window.
They
might sway gently in a breeze,
remain
stationary on a still day,
or
blow gustily in a storm.
One
can watch the changing of the seasons from Spring buds
to
full leaf to bare lace against a Winter sky.
Nature
becomes part of the service as one views the tree.
The
full circle of life's experience
with
the promise of continuity,
as
it leafs anew each Spring.
"For
every thing there is a season and a time for every matter under the
Sun." Ecclesiastes 3
