Blessings of Not Dwelling on Negative Things

I said to myself, “I will watch what I do

and not sin in what I say.

I will hold my tongue

when the ungodly are around me.”

But as I stood there in silence—

not even speaking of good things—

the turmoil within me grew worse.

The more I thought about it,

the hotter I got, 

igniting a fire of words”

Psalm 39:1-3
