Psalms 8.
God made the heavens! He used His hands and molded the sun, the stars, the skies, the mountains, space, the oceans, animals, and all of the universe. Also, He created man. He gave man dominion over all He had created. Why does God, whom can do whatever He pleases, give us anything? He wants us to be a representation of Him.
The psalmist longs to represent God and the majesty of God, but knows that he cannot without God's strength. We are weak, like babies and infants, and God uses us to show His glory. This is blowing the psalmist's mind, and it blows mine too. God is mindful of us. He cares for us. He wants us to show His glory to the world.
AND!
He wants to help. That's why we have this book, the Bible. If we meditate on it and bind the words in our hearts and minds, then the instruction within will permeate all of our thoughts, our perceptions, and our actions. We will transition into the representation of His glory. It's not an overnight process. We have to continually search after the character of God, and shine those attributes for others to see.
