Praise him with a blast of the ram's horn; 

praise him with the lyre and harp!

Psalms 150:3 NLT

I was listening to a podcast recently by Matt Brown who was raised in a home awash with family violence and harm.

He became a Barber, cutting men's hair, listening to their stories, and sharing hope.

He described his Barber's Chair as his "cathedral".

Making a noise, praising our God can look different for all of us. 

Your "cathedral", your ram's horn, lyre and harp could be your workplace, vocation, art...

You may praise by caring for those others miss, for refusing to refuse the refused, by standing against injustice, by sitting with someone who no one else will, by smiling, thanking, blessing, encouraging in the small and every day...

Your praise might look like self-care today.

Anything we do which points to our God, puts Him nearer the centre...

The "noise" we make isn't the important part, it's a heart thing.

So praise Him today, in your way, in your skin, in your life, because that will make a noise in Heaven...
