My favourite verses are mostly found in the psalms. I like to read the Psalms all the time.
Psalms 8
3 When I consider your heavens,
the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which you have set in place,
4 what is mankind that you are mindful of them,
human beings that you care for them?[c]
5 You have made them[d] a little lower than the angels[e]
and crowned them[f] with glory and honor.
6 You made them rulers over the works of your hands;
you put everything under their[g] feet:
7 all flocks and herds,
and the animals of the wild,
8 the birds in the sky,
and the fish in the sea,
all that swim the paths of the seas.
When I look at the design of the world, I cannot but marvel at God's amazing handiwork. Someone wrote that nature is God's handwriting. How true! It is magnificent. Yet, God cares even more for mankind whom He has created. The psalmist say, I am fearfully and wonderfully made in Psalm 139:14. He also put everything under man's feet, to rule over the animals, the flora and fauna. Yet, look at what mankind has done to nature in pursuit of development and material gains.
