One of my favorite passages of scripture is Psalm 8. It is an instance where the poetic nature of the Hebrew translates very well into our English versions of the bible. It is an eloquent description of the infinite majesty and wonder of our God. All too often I get lost in the awesome visions of verse 1 and 3:
Ps 8.1 O LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory above the heavens.
Ps 8.3 When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars, which you have set in place.
These verses have led me to wonderful times of worship, considering the awesome power of our God. But sometimes I forget how God's presence and creativity is displayed in even the most routine things. As verse 9 reminds us: "O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!"
As the videos below show, water balloons, snapping spaghetti and popped bubbles can also help us to marvel at the creative genius of the Most High God. (And the voice over is pretty comical as well!)
