📖 “You have made him a little lower than the angels, and crowned him with glory and honor.”

— Psalm 8:5 (NIV)

🟡 What does this mean?

This verse reminds us that God gave us immense value.

He created us special, almost like the angels, and gave us a crown of glory and honor, which means dignity, importance, and love.

Although sometimes the world may make us feel small or unimportant, God says we are valuable and precious to Him.

🧠 Let's think for a moment

Have you ever won a medal or an award?

How exciting it is to receive something like that!

Well, God gave you something much greater: He crowned you with glory and honor from the moment He created you.

This means you are important to Him and that your life has a special purpose.

🙌 What can we do today?

Remembering that our worth comes from God, not from what others think

Treating others with respect and love, because they are also valuable to God

Thanking God for creating us with so much honor

Living joyfully knowing that we have a purpose in Him

💬 Phrase to remember

👉 I am valuable to God and He crowned me with glory and honor.

🙏 Final prayer

Lord, thank You because You created me with so much love and value. Help me remember that I have honor and purpose in You. Teach me to live in a way that pleases You and to treat others with the same respect and love that You give me. Amen. 🙏
