Psalm 113

This psalm makes it clear that Christians do not submit to the whims of some distant deity. Our God does not stand off, demanding from us with no concern for those who follow him. Though his dwelling is higher than we can imagine verse 6 tells us that our God bends down. He draws close. He comes near. He rubs shoulders with his people and is attentive to even their whispers. Kings may over look the poor but God lifts them us. A husband may despise a wife who bears him no children, but God addresses her ignored griefs and grants her a child. Our God seeks intimacy with us.
