Psalm 501 The Mighty One, God, the LORD,
2 From Zion, (that's us! the delivered and redeemed nation of people for HIS glory!!)
9 Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work: 10 If one falls down, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up!
Life is good because HE makes it that way... HE illuminates... He puts the majesty into creation and the created (us) by His power! THAT's what stirs our hearts.
And somehow an indescribable joy that I could NEVER manufacture on my own comes over me. I might explode or I might just simply praise my Savior. It's not the things that make life good, it's LIFE, the person of Jesus, that IS good!
Psalm 8
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? (how in the world do we get to enjoy the things of you, or hear and understand them???!!! only by your grace. only because of what you've done on our behalf)
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!
