”Lord, our Lord, how magnificent is your name throughout the earth! You have covered the heavens with your majesty. 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, a son of man that you look after him? Lord, our Lord, how magnificent is your name throughout the earth!“
Psalms 8:1, 3-4, 9 CSB
David is in awe of who God is, what He has created and how tiny humanity is in comparison. Gods creation is so much more than we can fathom! It brings wonder and delight…intricate and complex at every turn.
This passage so accurately depicts the way I feel while hiking in nature. Everywhere I look there are specific creations of God who intricately created incredible beauty. Standing in awe of Gods creation is one way to have the proper humble perspective of how small and insignificant I really am!
Lord, I often feel as if the whole world revolved around me. My prayers often focus on what I need or what would make my family better…but we are so small in light of Your whole creation. And yet, You intimately care about every one of those details. God we don’t deserve the care you give us, but I am so grateful that you do. Help me never to get over the majesty of your creation or the intimate relationship you desire with me!
