Good morning!

Nope...no pics today....but how about some praise to lift your countenance instead?
Thought you'd like that :-)
This Psalm is also a praise song and one on my heart this morning...so here I share!
Psalm 8
For the director of music. According to gittith [a].


A psalm of David.
1 O LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory
above the heavens.

2 From the lips of children and infants
you have ordained praise [b]
because of your enemies,
to silence the foe and the avenger.

3 When I consider your heavens,
the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which you have set in place,

4 what is man that you are mindful of him,
the son of man that you care for him?

5 You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings [c]
and crowned him with glory and honor.

6 You made him ruler over the works of your hands;
you put everything under his feet:

7 all flocks and herds,
and the beasts of the field,

8 the birds of the air,
and the fish of the sea,
all that swim the paths of the seas.

9 O LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!

Isn't it amazing how much God cares? As I was sitting on my couch this morning, enjoying my quiet time with a cup of coffee and my Bible, I looked around at the new place and was filled with joy, gratefulness and a sense of awe - amazed by all the ways God has blessed me and us....yes...there are many things in my life right now that are stressing me to the point of naming chocolate my sole source of "nutrition." However - there is that "BUT, God...." see....we all thinking of that "BUT GOD!!!!!!" and forget there's a big comma there....But, pause, breathe, calm down....God IS and WAS and isn't done taking care of me yet...so here's where it comes to "Ok Eye, carefully put down the chocolate, breathe, eat some vegetables and remember there's a much bigger pictures going on here and I'm not about to drop you."
