Read Psalm 8
As a busy mum of two, life often feels full of tasks and worries. Yet, one of the things I love to do is walk in the cool of the evening. At these times I am struck by the grandeur of God’s creation. Psalm 8 reminds me of the contrast between God’s vast power and His tender care for me. He, who set the stars in place, also notices me. This psalm teaches us about God’s greatness and our incredible worth as His beloved creation.
- What does Psalm 8 tell us about the majesty of God and His creation?
- Why do you think the psalmist is amazed that God is mindful of humanity?
- How does understanding your worth in God’s eyes shape the way you live?
This week, take time to pause and marvel at God’s creation, maybe go for a walk and watch the sunset. Consider your place in His grand design and how deeply He loves you.
Prayer: Lord, thank you for your creation and for loving me amidst your greatness. Help me to understand just how much you love me, and how your great love can change me everyday. Amen.
