How Excellent His Name

"O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is they name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens."  Psalm 8:1.  He is our Lord.  The Almighty rules and controls.  His creation bows in submission to His will.  The Lord causes us to rise up, and He can cast down.  The Lord works all things according to His counsel.  His name is excellent because of His greatness, His glory, and His endurance.  The Lord continues while all things cease.  His glory is declared through all the earth.  His glory is seen in the glittering stars of the night, and in the brilliant light of the day.  His glory is seen in birth and in death.  We are reminded of our temporal nature and His eternal nature.  The Lord reveals Himself unto us.  The Lord desires to be our Lord.  We can share in His glory.  His glory and excellence blesses our life.  May the Lord be our Lord, and may His excellence be known through us.
