What claim has any man to your attention? Why do you care about anyone born to man? And you made him just less than God, and so have crowned him with glory and honor unlike any other creature. You give him authority over creation, and you made him able to become complete. (Psalm 8:4-6)
When you are asked how you feel, what comes
to mind? Do you consider exhausted, busy, overwhelmed, challenged? How about
privileged? Do you see that you are privileged each day to be given authority
and responsibility by the God of creation? Do you marvel at the opportunity and
think first of the gratitude you feel for that gift?
David clearly understood that gift, and he was filled with gratitude that the Lord considered him to be worthy of God’s attention, inclusion in His plans, and the assurance of a future marked by success and completeness. David was humble. His words reflect a proper view of his role in God’s plan.
View each day as privilege; full of opportunity and hope. Approach each new person as a part of God’s plan, and the work He is doing in you and in His world.
