Some of the most reassuring passages in the Bible are found in the Psalms. Written by several different authors, these passages, many of them very poetic, have a way of calming and comforting me.

They also speak of God’s grandeur and majesty, as this week’s passage does: Psalm 104:1:

This entire Psalm speaks of the majesty of God, from the creation of the earth, to the mountains, to the rain, to the animals, like the leviathan. The psalmist seems to be in awe of God’s creative powers.

He begins and ends this psalm praising God for his majesty.

Sometimes, when I can’t seem to see the big picture of what I’m doing, this passage helps to restore my perspective to its proper place.
