Psa 8
Scripture: vs 1, 3-4
[1] Lord, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
[3] When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,
[4] what is man that you are mindful of him,
and the son of man that you care for him?
Observation:
Our Lord God is majestic.
He is the creator of the entire universe and yet he is is mindful of us and cares for us.
Application:
The creator of the universe, you know.. the One who created our entire universe with space bigger than we can even imagine, so finely tuned for our life on this planet that the smallest portion of an atom out of place would make it uninhabitable for human life, the One who breathed life into us, the One who knew us even our mother’s womb.. yeah, that’s who we’re talking about. That same God cares about us! He loves us so much he sent his only Son die for our sins! Without open eyes and an open heart, it’s impossible to understand.
When we think, even for a moment, about how majestic our Lord is, and that he loves us that much, how can we not live our lives serving him, worshiping him, and glorifying him? That’s what I’m thinking about today.
Prayer:
Lord I love you. Thank you for caring about us. Thank you for caring about me. Thank you Lord for sending your Son to die for our sins and give us a fresh start, building our lives on Jesus Christ as our cornerstone. Lead me with the Holy Spirit within me to glorify you in all I do. In Jesus Christ’s holy and magnificent name I pray. Amen.
