Christmas In The Psalms | Psalm 8

Psalm 8 | JD Summers

Advent is a time of anticipation, and the Psalms can help us replace sentimentality with awe. In the Psalms, we see God’s people eagerly awaiting the coming of the Messiah, marveling at his intimate care and his majestic plan. God is transcendent, yet he made the pinnacle of his creation, human beings, just a little lower than the heavenly host. And God is imminent, taking on human flesh and joining his creation as a man himself. At Christmas, we rejoice as the magnificent glory of Christ comes among us as one of us. Praise Jesus!
