Thine, O LORD, [is] the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all [that is] in the heaven and in the earth [is thine]; thine [is] the kingdom, O LORD, and thou art exalted as head above all. - 1Ch 29:11

"Majesty" is the Hebrew word howd, meaning to be eminent, beautiful, to become lofty. Few words can better express the descrition of our Lord. He is to be lifted up in our praise, and we are also reminded that He is above all things: our problems, our faults, our petty differences among neighbors and co-workers...He alone stands perfect, and our only hope for true joy in this life is to come to Him.


All I have seen teaches me to trust the Creator for all I have not seen. -- Ralph Waldo Emerson
