This morning I hiked with my daughter and granddaughter to an undisclosed waterfall to celebrate Mothers’ Day together. The reading of Psalm 8 and singing “This is My Father’s World” happened in this place of beauty where all around us were reminders of the world our Father has created. He has not abandoned us!
Psalm 8 is a great reminder that God IS Lord, and the astonishing degree which He regards us.

1 Our Lord and Ruler, your name is wonderful everywhere on earth!
You let your glory be seen in the heavens above.
2 With praises from children and from tiny infants, you have built a fortress.
It makes your enemies silent, and all who turn against you are left speechless.
3 I often think of the heavens your hands have made,
and of the moon and stars you put in place.
4 Then I ask, “Why do you care about us humans?
Why are you concerned for us weaklings?”
5 You made us a little lower than you yourself,
and you have crowned us with glory and honor.
6 You let us rule everything your hands have made.
And you put all of it under our power—
7 the sheep and the cattle, and every wild animal,
8 the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea,
and all ocean creatures.
You let your glory be seen in the heavens above.

9 Our Lord and Ruler, your name is wonderful everywhere on earth!
Yes, Our Lord is still Ruler of all. Praise Him!
Build the fortress with praise and silence the enemy!
Remember to pray for each other! We don’t know what the future holds but God does.
