Our Sovereign -
The sun rises and lights up Your glory above the heavens.
The work of Your fingers created the moon and the stars. Looking at Your established creation, we wonder - who are we that You are mindful of us…that You care for us?
Not only do You care for us and pay attention to us, but You have crowned us with glory and honor. You have also given us the tender responsibility of honoring the work of Your hands - the sheep and oxen, the beasts of the field and the birds of the air, the fish of the sea and whatever passes through the seas’ paths.
May we be like the babes and infants who speak a protection that silences enemies. For out of their mouths comes Your fiercely loving truth that proclaims Your majestic name.
Crowned with Your glory and honor, may we humbly remember the One who creates us, crowns us, and cares for us.
Amen.
