A Psalm for Sunday...




Psalm 8
O Lord, Our Lord, your majestic name fills the earth!
Your glory is higher than the heavens.
You have taught children and infants to tell of your strength, 
silencing your enemies and all who oppose you.
When I look at the night sky and see the work of your fingers-- 
the moon and the stars you set in place--
what are mere mortals that you should think about them,
human beings that you should care for them?
Yet you made them only a little lower than God
and crowned them with glory and honor.
You gave them charge of everything you made,
putting all things under their authority--
the blocks and the herds
and all the wild animals,
the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea,
and everything that swims the ocean currents.
O Lord, our Lord, your majestic name fills the earth!

I love the Psalms and this is a beautiful one. David is one of my favorite characters in the Bible. I think that is because He is sooooo real as he journals his ups and downs.

"You have taught children and infants to tell of your strength, silencing your enemies and all who oppose you." This really stood out for me. As I take the risk soon to share my story....I want so much to silence the enemy and show His glory. Tons of blessings to you. Sarah
