Speak Lord: The wonder of it…

When I see the heavens, the work of your hands,
the moon and the stars which you arranged,
what is man that you should keep him in mind,
mortal man that you care for him?

Yet you have made him little less than a god;
with glory and honour you crowned him,
gave him power over the works of your hand,
put all things under his feet.

All of them, sheep and cattle,
yes, even the savage beasts,
birds of the air, and fish
that make their way through the waters.

Psalm for Trinity Sunday
Psalm 8:4-9

The Creator God has care for human beings: even – in the Incarnation – choosing to share in our experience of life and death.

Contemplating this extraordinary truth helps awaken us to the glory of God and the potential that is in us to also live and share that glory…
