Look! It's the lectionary! Coming in the clouds!

I've been completely entranced by Wordle, a website that allows you to make, in their words, "beautiful word clouds."

Wordle is a toy for generating “word clouds” from text that you provide. The clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text. You can tweak your clouds with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes. The images you create with Wordle are yours to use however you like. You can print them out, or save them to the Wordle gallery to share with your friends.

So I entered the texts for this week's lectionary readings and here's what happened.

For Genesis:

For Romans:

alt="Wordle: NT Lectionary"
style="padding:4px;border:1px solid #ddd">

For Mark:
title="Wordle: Gospel lectionary"> src="http://www.wordle.net/thumb/wrdl/620268/Gospel_lectionary"
alt="Wordle: Gospel lectionary"
style="padding:4px;border:1px solid #ddd">

Personally, I think these are pretty cool. But I probably ought to do more actual reading and thinking right about now if I'm going to come up with a sermon.
