Weekly Devotional Column By JAMES MacnfiNZlE _ Today’s column begins an original sermon by John Mitch ener, 17-year-old student at the Edenton Junior-Senior High School, and a member of the Edenton Presbyterian Church. Have you ever noticed how much curiosity the people of to day have? This is the age when man’s curiosity is constantly be ing aroused by the new cars, sput niks, rockets and satellites. Al though curiosity is a good thing to have, it seems we forget to be come curious about the things that really.count. Sometimes it seems that man’s curiosity be comes side-tracked by the mys teries of this world, and he loses that real curiosity to know him self and his God in an intimate way. Let us consider some questions and answers from which we have been side-tracked by the world. Man has always wanted to know the “inside story” of everything that happens. I wonder how many of us have truly desired to know the real story of man him self. The story of what man is, especially in his relationship to God. David was one such man who desired earnestly to know what man actually is. He asked “What is man that Thou art mindful of him?” (Psalm 8:4). David here has brought before us this ques tion in its proper jjerspective. The question deals with man and God, and their relationship to each other. When David begins this Psalm he begins by praising God for His excellence and goodness. Next he points out the wonders and majestic glory of God’s cre ation. It seems the very thought of God holds David in a feeling of great awe, wonder, and humili ty. “What is man that Thou art mindful of him?” Perhaps it seems to David that man has fall en so low that it is a wonder God would even be mindful of man, especially when compared to the glory of creation. David ex presses our need for divine guid ance when he writes “Man is like to vanity” (Psalm 144:4), and again, “verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity” (Psalm 39:5). This is really quite a depressing thought to consider, that no matter how hard we try, no matter what great success we achieve, our very best is consid ered vanity by God. Perhaps it seems that all is lost. What is the use of trying? But David reexamines the sit uation. Perhaps he remembers that man is made in the image of God. Perhaps this is his rea son for saying in the next verse (Psalm 8:5) that man is only a little lower than the angels. But then, this is only possible be cause of the grace of God. Af ter all, it would be almost im possible for God to fail to notice man since He made man in His own image. Also, David realizes that he has received many bless ings from God, that God is mind ful of man, and He has given to man glory, honor, and dominion over the earth. David ends his Psalm with a note of praise for God’s excellence and in a tone of reassured hope, that we only really exist when we exist in and for God.
