A Father's Day Card

This Sunday will be Father's Day. For some fathers there will be cards and gifts today to recognize, in a special way, the important role these men have played, and are playing, in the lives of their children. The cards will have headlines like "You are the Best Father" or "Dad of the Year" or "Dad, There's No One Who Can Compare to You". Inside the card there is likely to be a short poem with more words of praise or even words written personally from child to father.

Psalm 8 is a little like the poem written inside the Father's day card. It gives praise upon praise to a God who is over all the earth, high in the heavens, who sets the moon and stars, and yet, is willing to notice something as insignificant as humankind.

Lord, Our LORD, how excellent your name in all the earth.

Come join us as we worship and praise our heavenly Father this week.
