Oh LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory
in the heavens.
2 Through the praise of children and infants
you have established a stronghold against your enemies,
to silence the foe and the avenger.
3 When I consider your heavens,
the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which you have set in place,
4 what is mankind that you are mindful of them,
human beings that you care for them?
5 You have made them a little lower than the angels
and crowned them with glory and honor.
6 You made them rulers over the works of your hands;
you put everything under their feet:
7 all flocks and herds,
and the animals of the wild,
8 the birds in the sky,
and the fish in the sea,
all that swim the paths of the seas.
9 LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
Familiarity with the names of the Master/Creator God sometimes can cause me to lose sight and take for granted the obvious: God's, and the sheer awesomeness of who He is, and how He thinks of us. We are surrounded by his handiwork; beautiful sunrises and sunsets, incredible sculpturing of mountains and landscapes. Even though this world has been corrupted by the Fall, we are living in an immense art gallery. God has given us administration over His creation- "handed us the keys"-
We are always on His mind and highly prized by Him.
We are loved with a jealous and everlasting love, and He has given good gifts to us.
Slow down a bit, beloved take a look around, and Praise Him -today and everyday.
