Psalm 24

"The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein." Psalm 24, ESV

"A David psalm. GOD claims Earth and everything in it, God claims World and all who live on it." Psalm 24 The Message

It helps.  When I feel overwhelmed as I do now, it helps to remember that He is owner and keeper of all---the fullness of the earth, its people, animals, landscapes, problems, joys, and ultimate destiny.

It reminds me of that quote "I am small.  He is big. Rest there."

Life feels big to me today, but God's sovereignty is comprehensive, sufficient, enormous.

Spurgeon's Treasury of David points out these words are on the Roayl Exchange in London. As we go about our trading and business, what solid words to be over us all.
