Scripture lesson: Psalm 8 The Creation Psalm

 

Time to reflect: This is known as the Creation Psalm because it focuses on the the universe and humanity's place in the creation.


Moving Throughout the day: Read verses 3-8 slowly and meditate on each line.

Scripture:

O LORD, our Lord,
       how majestic is your name in all the earth!
       You have set your glory
       above the heavens.

  From the lips of children and infants
       you have ordained praise
       because of your enemies,
       to silence the foe and the avenger.

  When I consider your heavens,
       the work of your fingers,
       the moon and the stars,
       which you have set in place,

  what is man that you are mindful of him,
       the son of man that you care for him?

 You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings
       and crowned him with glory and honor.

 You made him ruler over the works of your hands;
       you put everything under his feet:

 all flocks and herds,
       and the beasts of the field,

  the birds of the air,
       and the fish of the sea,
       all that swim the paths of the seas.

  O LORD, our Lord,
       how majestic is your name in all the earth!
