"O LORD, what is man that you regard him,
or the son of man that you think of him?
Man is like a breath;
his days are like a passing shadow."
Our God is so great. He did not have to reach down to His fallen creation and redeem His chosen people. "In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him" (1 John 4:9).
We are so small. Life does not revolve around us. "What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes" (James 4:14).
"For thus says the One who is high and lifted up,
who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy:
“I dwell in the high and holy place,
and also with him who is of a contrite and lowly spirit,
to revive the spirit of the lowly,
and to revive the heart of the contrite." (Isaiah 57:15)
Praise Him for His marvelous grace!
