The seagulls in Finding Nemo illustrate the problem with most individuals today. Cries for mine, mine, mine take our eyes off of to whom and for whom this life on earth is meant. Thus, instead of praying not to us O Lord, each soul appears to be seeking credit, fame and glory due their name.
After spending the last 100 plus days reading one Psalm a day, it is clear from these chapters why God created man and woman.

Psalm 33:1 uses the expression “it is fitting,” confirming mankind’s purpose to acknowledge God as the giver of life. While I haven’t reached this passage on my current journey, Psalm 150:6 insures believers that they are on the right track by praising the Lord.
