The prayer conveys an image of God as the creator of heavens and earth. It echoes the narrations of the book of Genesis in which God brings the whole universe to existence in seven days and creates the man and the woman with love in order to live peacefully in the garden.
In the gospel according to John, the Word is the person who pre-exists everything and for whom everything is created. These days, this Word has lowered and has pitched his tent among us.
The author of this brilliant psalm shows an overly detailed depiction of mother nature contemplating its cedars of Lebanon, birds' nests and storks. This prayer suggests that we stop in order to think what a wonderful world that surrounds us. Don't you think it is a good idea going for a walk in nature with the family one day adopting a contemplative attitude? This is something that the psalm itself invites to do.
