Psalm 8

What is man that You are mindful of him,
And the son of man that You visit him?
For You have made him a little lower than the angels,[b]
And You have crowned him with glory and honor. vv.4-5


Read chapter 8
Out of all things created, out of they vastness of the earth and expanse of the universe, God is mindful of us, of mankind.  He didn't just create and the left us up to figure things out.  He cares about us, out of all the things He could focus on, we're His prize possession!  In the past we've seen God come down and visit His most faithful servants like Adam, Enoch, Abraham, Jacob.  Then His advent, His first coming to mankind when He came as a babe.  Now as we wait for His second coming, that will be more than just a visit but His personal forever presence, we have the Holy Spirit.  This definitely shows a God that cares about us and didn't or doesn't abandon us.  We are made a little lower than the angles in comparison to Divine power yet are still exalted being crowned with glory and honor.  How do these verses affect you?  Do you feel like His prized possession or abandoned?  What has made you feel that way?
