Psalm 101 - Curating Our AttentionSample

Day 1: Starting with Song
"I will sing of your love and justice; to you, LORD, I will sing praise." (Psalm 101:1, NIV)
David knows something we've forgotten: what we pay attention to first shapes everything else. Before he makes a single decision about what to watch, read, or think about, he fills his mind with God's character.
There is great wisdom here. The first input of the day often sets the emotional tone for everything that follows. David chooses to start with God's love and justice instead of the latest crisis or controversy.
In our age of notifications and breaking news, this is revolutionary. Imagine starting your day with worship instead of worry, with God's character instead of human chaos.
TODAY: Before you check your phone or turn on the news, spend two minutes singing, literally or figuratively, about God's love and justice.
GO DEEPER: Create a simple morning routine that starts with focusing on God's character before engaging with the world's messages.
PRAYER: God, I want to start my day with your song, not the world's noise. Fill my mind with your love and justice before I encounter anything else. Let worship be the lens through which I see everything else today. Amen.
