I saw a funny meme on Facebook a while back that said, wow, your social media post about

politics has changed my mind and my vote, said no one ever.

Can you imagine that time we would save each day if we didn't get into foolish conversations

online?

If we stayed away from mindless, pointless quarreling, it gets us nowhere, and instead we

center on godly essentials that are good for everyone, but why is it so tempting?

Does your pride ever keep you from stepping away from a foolish argument?

evading foolish conversations, learning to avoid what is foolish in order to pursue

what is righteous, and what better way to seek after this biblical truth than in a time

of quiet meditation.

So first, allow your eyes to move from open, through a soft gaze, and now, to closed,

and as your eyes shudder, become aware of your breathing now, and is settled deeper into

where you are, surrender this place to be the rightest way of the divine, and allow this

point in time to be one of awareness of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
