“When I consider your heavens,
the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which you have set in place, what is mankind that you are mindful of them,
human beings that you care for them?”
Psalm 8:3-4
If we’re being honest, it’s sometimes very easy to get caught up in the burdens and craziness of life. We might find ourselves thinking, “God do You care about me? Do You see me?”
I encourage you to PAUSE. Look up and acknowledge the handiwork of God. See the moon and the stars and all the splendor of His magnificent creation. The Bible tells us that God holds all of creation in the palm of His hands – that’s how GREAT and BIG our God is!
What David is expressing here in Psalm 8 is an overwhelming feeling of God’s love and grace for mankind. David is acknowledging how great God is and how powerful He is, yet God is never too busy or too far to hear us, care for us, and love us.
In fact, God is so mindful of you and me – that He sent His only Son Jesus, to die for us, His creation, on a cross so that all who believe in Him, would not perish but have everlasting life.
That is GOOD NEWS! THAT is our kind, loving, gracious God who is mindful of you and me today! He loves you and has a plan for your life. Would you take time to seek the Lord, cast your burdens at His feet, and thank Him for how good He is.
God bless you!
