Inspiration
Hebrews 2:6 speaks of humanity's position in relation to God's creation. The author quotes from Psalms 8:4-6, which acknowledges that humans were made by God and given a unique place of honor and authority within the world. However, the author of Hebrews notes that this position has been obscured by sin, as humans have rebelled against God and failed to live up to their high calling.
This verse serves as a reminder of both our dignity and our imperfection. It reminds us that we were created by God and given a special role in His creation, but also that we have fallen short of that role and are in need of redemption. It is a call to repentance and a recognition of our need for God's grace and mercy.
At the same time, this verse also points to the ultimate destiny of humanity. The author of Hebrews notes that while we may be lower than the angels in our present state, we are destined for something greater. Through Christ's sacrifice and resurrection, we have the hope of being restored to our original place of honor and authority. This verse encourages us to look beyond our present circumstances and to hope in the promises of God.
Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, I praise Your holy name for the honor You have bestowed on me to be Your child. I am grateful that You have not left me to face this world alone but have sent Your Son to suffer for me. This verse reminds me of Your perfect plan and purpose for my life. Help me to trust in You, even when I don't understand what's going on around me. May Your will be done in my life, and may I always seek to bring glory to Your name. 
In Jesus's name I pray. Amen.
