Your algorithm refreshes every second. God’s majesty never has to.
In this brief devotional, Justin R. Lester reflects on Psalm 8, tracing King David’s life—from shepherd to warrior to repentant sinner—and highlighting the recurring refrain, “Oh Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth.” Lester draws a parallel between the relentless refresh of modern algorithms, notifications, and news cycles and the unchanging majesty of God. He argues that we have confused constant awareness with true wisdom, and that worship serves as a spiritual “reset” that refocuses us on what truly matters, namely God’s eternal greatness.
