This summer, I’ve started to practice shouting for joy every day.  Every morning I joyfully give thanks for different things the Lord has done in my life or will do for me (His promises).  For example, I’ll shout for joy for how He has changed me. Or how He will continue to help me become more and more glorious. I find that there are so many reasons to shout for joy every day!  It has helped my faith a lot to repeat these truths every day. I can see that it goes beyond just positive thinking. It is based on

Watching Brother Fish’s message about God’s glory and the church on Friday reminded me that I’m a priest who’s close to God, and a pending king who will bless many. God has the best timing for this replayed message: the Queen of England has just passed, and a new king would be crowned. I find these events significant because I respect the royal family. However, knowing my position in God helps me to treasure myself more and to improve for Him, so I may fulfill my royal duties in God’s kingdom.
