Psalm 8

When I observe your heavens,
the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which you set in place,
what is a human being
that you remember him?

The world and the universe in which it is set, are utterly awe-inspiring,

amazing,

beautiful,

majestic –

unbelievable at times.

What an incredible thing: to be able to see, hear, smell, taste, move through this glorious world.

Then to realize that God, creator, sustainer of life – majestic Himself, beyond the glory of His creation – that God has also created humans, and cares for us!

What depths of love.

Heights of mercy.

That Creator God cares at all for any of us, let alone each of us.

O LORD, our Lord,
How majestic is your name!
