Day 4

Start with Posture of Silence and Solitude (2 minutes)

Read Psalm 8 two or three times either aloud or silently.

For the director of music. According to gittith. A psalm of David.

Lord, our Lord,
    how majestic is your name in all the earth!

You have set your glory
    in the heavens.
Through the praise of children and infants
    you have established a stronghold against your enemies,
    to silence the foe and the avenger.
When I consider your heavens,
    the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
    which you have set in place,
what is mankind that you are mindful of them,
    human beings that you care for them?

You have made them a little lower than the angels
    and crowned them with glory and honor.
You made them rulers over the works of your hands;
    you put everything under their feet:
all flocks and herds,
    and the animals of the wild,
the birds in the sky,
    and the fish in the sea,
    all that swim the paths of the seas.

Lord, our Lord,
    how majestic is your name in all the earth!

What word or phrase stood out to you?: Meditate on that word or phrase.What might God be speaking to you this day?

Respond to God who has been speaking to you through the word: You can speak out your prayer to God or journal it as you reflect on the Psalm.

End with Posture of Silence and Solitude (2 minutes)
