Negative news seems to dominate the headlines. Upsetting stories can seep into your spirit and leave you feeling anxious and depressed. When bad news gets the better of you, turn to the Bible, the Book of Good News. Let God’s Word return you to a place of peace.
Heavenly Father, Your amazing powers are within us.

Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.—Matthew 5:5 (ESV)

The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body.—James 3:6 (NIV)
