Why start with negative?

Why start with negative?

Psalm 101:8 Every morning I will put to silence?all the wicked in the land; I will cut off every evildoer?from the city of the Lord.

It's tempting... When we wake up there are MANY vehicles of negative temptation waiting for us. From the news to social media there are plenty of options to suck us into a vat of negativity and drama. This verse calls us to 'silence all wicked in the land'. That can start with how we begin filling our mind for the day. When I 'cut off every evildoer' who tries to rob me of joy and peace, and I dive into the word and prayer... it's an awesome way to start. The day may have trials and hills to climb, but with the right start, we are in a better position to face the day. Silence the negativity, focus on Jesus, and have a blessed day!

This world offers us such click baiting stupidity and we fall for it. But the WORD of God is so amazingly directional, always walking toward a stronger relationship with Him! Great post and oh so timely!
