Inspirational Nugget: Samantha Smith
In 1982, a young American schoolgirl didn’t understand why the United States and the Soviet Union were enemies. She wrote a letter to the Soviet Union’s president, Yuri Andropov, asking why relations were so tense. Her letter was published in Pravda and she was invited to meet the Russian president herself. She later acted as America’s youngest ambassador to Japan before dying at age 13 in a plane crash.

Reign in Life
Romans 5:17 New International Version (NIV) – For if by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God’s abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!
We are reigning and are to reign in life, never because of hardworking we are, or the kind of family we hail from, because of the great nation we are born into, please no, we should and can reign in life just because we are of Christ Jesus who has brought salvation and righteousness (right standing with God) to us (believers).
Now us reigning is or might be or by default (a setting by a manufacturer on how a machine should act) but that doesn’t neglect that fact and truth of us being responsible. In fact, without responsibility, we would never experience the goodies we have in God through Christ Jesus.
We need to enforce this law to reign in life, where we would be sickness free, poverty-free, lack free, but rather reign, rule and live like kings for that is who we are.
Confession
I reign in life without struggle because the price has been paid for me on the cross of Calvary by Sweet Christ Jesus.
