Prayer from Psalm 8

Father, Your creation tells a story about You.  

If we would just pause and look.  

If we would slow down enough to take it in.  

If we would pull ourselves away from our many distractions.  

Then we would see as David saw in Psalm 8.  The marvelous world around us speaks of Your glory and Your majesty.  Your name is great!  The galaxy declares Your creativity.  The stars, moon, and sun all tell a story about You.  What's even more amazing is that in this big big universe You've made, humans stand out as special to You.  We show Your splendor to Your creation.  We share in Your blessedness.  We have Your watchful eye on us.    

Thank you for everything You've made.  

Amen

Father, thank you for gently and patiently parenting me.   Thank you for waiting on me.  Thank you for always being there for me no matter what.   Thank you for your unconditional love for me.
