An Antidote for Media Overload-Induced Angst (Psalm 34)

Over three years ago, I wrote a blog, "An Antidote for Media Overload-Induced Angst" from Psalm 34. In our Covid-19 isolation, our contacts with others have relied almost exclusively on Social Media outlets.
Now with the addition of the massive Black Lives Matter anti-racist demonstrations (and the distracting anarchist riots), if we are not actually marching, we seem to be glued to the news and/or our Twitter feeds. There are continuous skirmishes in the comment threads on almost every post, no matter the subject or position.

Certainly, there is much to repent of, much to mourn over, and much to work towards.

In any event, I think this article still has legs today.

What do you think?

    I think these "legs" are stronger now than they were when you wrote this.
    So my favorite part of Ps 34 is v21-22 as in Romans 12:19-20. But thinking it might better if i would focus on v1-3.

In fostering an encouraging place for pastors, we will not post comments that are not respectful and loving (even in disagreement). Pastors get enough of that after church on Sunday and in board meetings. So we will not be going there.
