I was going to say this, too. Also, if you want pairs of words or phrases to stay together, you put a ~ (tilde) between them instead of a space. The tilde becomes a space in the wordle. I intend to use it when I next run a Bible study - get people to circle the bits they think are most important in the text and then see whether the Wordle agrees and talk about it.

great idea to use re Bible text - can be done by every preacher - and when lectionary texts are read -
