Saying 29
19 Do not fret because of evildoers
or be envious of the wicked,
20 for the evildoer has no future hope,
and the lamp of the wicked will be snuffed out.

I struggled a little bit this morning, to pull out a specific take. In the end, I chose this one. I like it in the context of what I see on the news, how people treat each other, the general disregard for other people, and how our countries leadership is currently acting. I take solace in this verse. It tells me that I don't need to worry about the bad news, the tragedy around me, the evil that seems to be portrayed on humanity every single day. Stay focused on God and that's where I will get my hope and contentment.
