Meditations on Psalm 8

When I see a baby the first word that comes to my mind usually isn't strength.Babies, nursing babies are helpless. If I went out to pick people to join an army to fight my enemies, I wouldn't generally pick babies.  But that's the picture David gives us of the kind of people God has chosen to establish His strength and to silence His enemies. "From the mouth of infants and nursing babes You have established strength, because of your adversaries, to make the enemy and the revengeful cease."I work so hard and we work so hard at trying to be more important and powerful and strong so that we can do ministry for God when in reality what we may need most is to recognize our weakness, our inability and insignificance and come to God in absolute one hundred percent dependence if we are actually going to do ministry for Him.
