Psalm 8 shows us the heart of young David. Not knowing at this point how God would use him, David was already in a relationship with God, already aware of the greatness of God in comparison to man. Pastor Mat looks at David's exaltation of Yahweh in His glory, and the wonder of His love for us all.
