give thanks

recently, ive been in this spurt of looking at the natural and feeling very demoralised by what i see. the more i focused on things i saw, the more terrible i thought it was. somewhere during my epistemology and metaphysics class, God told me 2 things- "selene, learn to give thanks for the little things you see."

1 It is good to give thanks to the LORD,
And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High;
2 To declare Your lovingkindness in the morning,
And Your faithfulness every night,
3 On an instrument of ten strings,
On the lute,
And on the harp,
With harmonious sound.
4 For You, LORD, have made me glad through Your work;
I will triumph in the works of Your hands.
psalm 92:1-4

secondly, you reign in life by having two things
RECEIVE the abundance of grace and GIFT of righteousness. romans 5:17
reign means to be king, to exercise kingly power and the highest influence.
if how you reign in life does not depend on what you do, then what you dont do will not negate your power to reign in life.

open our spiritual eyes and see that God is for us. if we only look at what is in the natural, we are just like any other person in the world. but if we look at how good our Abba is, that is we know that we are the children of the Most High, deserving nothing less that what we see in the supernatural.
