The opening of the Book of Psalms highlights a profound truth: true joy flows from obeying God and rejecting the influence of those who mock or dismiss His importance.
Our friends and associates subtly shape our thoughts and values. Surrounding ourselves with people who disrespect God’s principles can lead us to adopt their mindset, gradually pulling us away from God’s Word and purpose.
The God who split the sea… replaced by a cow. The God who rained plagues on Egypt… forgotten for something that eats grass. This is not just foolishness, it’s rebellion of the highest order.
