Praise our God, all peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard; he has preserved our lives and kept our feet from slipping.
When things go well in your life, who do you thank? Do you remember to say "thank you Jesus for without You this'll not be possible "? Acknowledge God in all your ways and He'll direct your ways. The more your praises go up, the more His blessings come down. Spend more time appreciating the good things in your life and you'll stop depreciating! Give it a try, spend a week or even a day not complaining and simply be grateful for the good things even if it's just still being alive on a terrible day!
How many times has God kept you safe? How many times has He directed your steps and taken you down paths that had sure footing and great purpose for Him? Praise God that He works in our lives. God preserves our lives and keeps us from slipping (vs. 9-NIV). It is true that we face trials, are tempted, and are asked to persevere and depend on God in and through those times. Remember though that we do not see or know all that God does, and the substance of our lives shares more purpose than to just get from one obstacle to another. Believe that He is working in your life – because He is.
