Psalm 113

In just one minute I think I picked up the jest of this psalm. Yes it praises God for who he is, but it also focuses on those whom he intentionally pursues. They include the dirt poor, the cast off's of every society, and the childless. Three groups of people who's needs are often overlooked or marginialized by the people of this world, but always catch God's attention. When I consider that God pursued, and continues to pursue, me I am reminded that I fit in one or more of these catagories. There may be times that I feel on top of the world but this psalm reminds me that I am there because of God's choice and action.
