Psalm 8:1 (NIV)
1 Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all
the earth!
You have set your glory in the heavens.
These two concepts seem to be contradictory, or at least
unconnected. On the one hand, God's name is majestic in this plain ol'
transitory space we call earth, but at the same time he is glorious and above
the highest heavens. This collision of different worlds is played out in the
life of Israel. It is made clear in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus.
It will be made glorious in us, who will one day share in the glory of the
heavens because we have boldly declared the majesty of our LORD God on earth!
Thought for today:
Do I fully comprehend the concept and construct of God?
