I’m grateful for the commitment to write daily gratitude (most days.) It has become an important part of my morning routine, and I consider the practice as vital to my sense of well-being as reading Scripture. I started both habits about the same time, October 2022.
Call me uninformed, but I don’t pay much attention to news on mainstream media. Or what’s deemed as such. I’m grateful there’s so much information on the internet, and that it’s for one to do one’s own research on whatever the current narrative is. Why settle for the misinformation, disinformation and outright lies the mockingbird media is spewing? It’s amazing how calming just looking for answers can be, and intriguing the further down the rabbit hole one goes. God gave us brains for a reason.
I wish I could remember specifically what it was that happened in October that even got me started reading the Bible every day—no doubt it was in reaction to another crazy thing happening, kind of like this satellite balloon story the media is spinning. Something must have prompted me to do something so radical. Whatever it was, I’m grateful. I’ve never felt such peace in the midst of craziness and confusion, and it’s what gives me hope for the future.
These words from the song,”I Believe” say it best: “I’m findin’ more and more truth in words written in red.
They tell me that there’s more to life than what I can see, I believe.”
For the word of the Lord is right, And all His work is done in truth. He loves righteousness and justice; The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord. ~Psalm 33:4-5
