How Majestic Is Your Name

In All The Earth

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

You have set your glory in the heavens. Through the praise of children and infants you have established a stronghold against 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 mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them?

You have made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honor.

You made them rulers over the works of your hands; you put everything under their feet: all flocks and herds, and the animals of the wild, the birds in the sky, and the fish in the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas.

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

Psalm 8:1-9

The Voyager I spacecraft, was launched in 1977, and is on the outer edge of our solar system, more than 10 billion miles away. In February 1990, when Voyager I was almost four billion miles from us, scientists turned its camera toward Earth that revealed our planet as an almost imperceptible blue dot on a vast sea of empty space.

In the immense reaches of our universe, Earth is just a minuscule speck. On this seemingly insignificant pebble in the ocean of galactic objects live more than seven billion people.

Look up and wonder at God’s creation and praise Him that He crowned you with glory through His Son Jesus.

We feel the power of God’s creation; we feel the power of His love.
