Don't Get Too Humble, a Reflection on Psalm 8:1-4

"O God," the Psalmist sings, "When I consider your glory, when I consider your power, when I consider what you have created, I wonder why you bother with us."

God is greater, much greater than human beings. Yet, don't get too humble. God has a job for us.

Many of us can use this psalm to prod us or to assure us of the value of what we're trying to do--or, ought to be doing. We're responsible for maintaining, caring for, being responsible for, God's creations--human and earthly.
