Morning:
Psalm 8
...Look at how often my plans falter, how much I screw up. I am the perfect picture of imperfection. Yet you, this One who never fails, who has done it all perfectly from the beginning, whose glory is displayed all around me, love me. And you have given me power and authority. It's funny, because it's like, "Are you sure you want my screwed up self to be a crucial part of your master plan? Do you really want to count on me to continue a design that's thousands of years old? That doesn't seem very smart to trust me with that." Yet, you do. You've given me skills and gifts to carry out your will. Thank goodness I have your Spirit within me, or this would go very poorly.
