- How did you do in applying what we talked about last week?
Explore - Read the Scripture. (Psalm 8)

Does everything always look like it has been subjected to Jesus? When will that happen? Verse 9: What have we seen in Jesus? What is Jesus crowned with? Why did He taste death for us?
2: God’s Majesty and The People He’s Made:
How does this fulfill Psalm 8? How does Jesus restore us to our place?
Verses 3-4: When we consider the heavens, what thoughts should fill us? How did the sermon from Sunday help to bear this out?
Verses 5-8: What has God done for the people made in His image? What is the place he has given us? What are we supposed to do with the place He has given us? Unfortunately, what have we done?
How does He enable worship?
Pondering both creation and the cross should have what effect in us?
