Prayer from Psalm 113: The High Low God

I praise you Lord!
When? From this very second until every clock stops–and beyond.
Where? On every square foot of earth the sun touches from sunrise to sunset.
Why? Because you are so high. You are so exalted there is no nation greater than you. Your throne is so elevated you have to stoop to see the heavens and the earth.
But, you are also so low. You draw near to the most humble–the poor man with nothing but dust to his name; the childless woman with only tears as family. And you replace their pain with pleasure.
That’s why I praise you Lord!
