“O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!”
Psalm 8:9
It is hard to believe that this season of Lent is almost over and we will soon be celebrating the Resurrection of Jesus. Time is flying so quickly these days. Psalm 8 ends the same way it begins - praising the LORD. Author Derek Kidner has this to say: “We have been given much responsibility on this planet and the greatest of these is to be servant and worshipper.” Jesus was and is a servant and a worshipper, that is the example He set for us to follow with His life.
May the words of the closing line of Psalm 8 be on our lips with the dawn of each new day – they have power, the power we need to be who we are supposed to be in Christ.
A prayer
Father – Your name is indeed majestic and powerful, forgive us for the times when we do not give You the praise You deserve. Help us each day to see the ordinary miracles that You work in our lives and may we give You the praise and glory for it even in the midst of the storm. In the name of Jesus, Amen.
