Psalm 148

It took me almost 2 minutes to read this psalm. The psalmist points out in verse 14 that because of his greatness God desided to build a monument. When men of power and influence choose to build a memoments they select stone and build them tall. They cover them with precious metals and fill them with pictures of themselves. Yet when God planned a monuments he passed over the durable materials of this world and instead chose the most precious part of creation - people. With the skillful hand of an artisan he is building a monument that will last longer than Mount Rushmore.
