“Humble Glory”

Psalm 8

Pride diminishes our humanity. Our vain efforts to exalt ourselves obscures our dignity. But in humility we can joyfully and fruitfully discern our place in the world. Psalm 8 trains our hearts to believe that pride brings us low, but that sitting before the Lord in humble awe actually lifts us up to be the noble crown of creation.
