Let All The Trees Of The Forest Sing For Joy

The hike in Maui's Bamboo forest along Pipiwai Trail was mysteriously chanting, leaving Brian and I with an unforgettable memory of beautiful scenery and sounds.

At the time the wind was gently blowing through the bamboo forest causing the stalks to bump into each other which made the sound of a beautiful chime. The trees of the forest were indeed singing for joy!

"Let the fields be jubilant,

and everything in them;

let all the trees of the forest

sing for joy."

Psalm 96:12 (NIV)

Bamboo is one of the fastest growing plants in the world. It can grow between three to ten centimeters tall in one day.

Bamboo also has higher compressible strength than wood, brick or concrete and an equal tensile strength of steel.

God in His marvelous wisdom made bamboo to sing for Him!
