Image quote and caption by @nonanotnora ・・・ “I started my career as a broadcast news journalist, both radio and television, and also spent time as a featured columnist for a newspaper. The first rule of thumb to reporting was (and remains), “if it bleeds, it leads.” In other words, if it’s scary, scintillating, or shocking, tell it FIRST and OFTEN. Why? Because human nature leads us to focus our attention on the worst that could happen and that translates to viewers, listeners and readers. If you notice, there is ALWAYS “breaking news,” but that “breaking news” isn’t actually news; it’s repackaged material that was shared 15-minutes ago. Don’t believe me? Just give yourself thirty minutes to watch any news program and you will realize that, after about 5 minutes, you haven’t learned anything new. Which is the purpose for… NEWs. If you don’t know this, you will get sucked into the vacuum of manufactured hysteria. The facts are real. Yes, we are in a very challenging health crisis. Yes, millions of people will be affected. Yes, scientists and medical professionals are scrambling to develop a vaccine. And, yes, we are undergoing unprecedented levels of physical distancing. Yet, in the midst of all of this, God is still on the throne which means The Truth remains. 2 Chronicles 7:14 If we aren’t careful, the news cycle will replace prayer with emotional exhaustion. Which is why we must guard our hearts with a diligence. If you want to stay up to date on COVID-19 developments, check out the World Health Organization website and the Centers for Disease Control. But, please, DO NOT allow your heart to be troubled by an industry that is designed to trouble it for ratings. If you want to experience peace, you must spend time with the Prince of Peace.” #Pray #SeekGod #Peace @nonanotnora https://ift.tt/2xW5MgR -- source link
