Psalm 1: 1-3
How blessed -- Very happy.
is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the ungodly -- Does not believe worldly lies.
Nor stand in the path of sinners -- Act like or live our life like those of the World.
Nor sit in the seat of scoffers. -- We are not "at home" in this World, we don't belong here.
But his delight -- What we deeply enjoy.
is in the Law of the Lord -- The ways God designed this World to work, how we are to interact with and care for it and one another.
And in His Law he meditates day and night. -- We are to think about it all the time, figure it out, connect the dots.
And he will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water -- Constantly watered by the Word.
Which yields its fruit in its season -- Not out of season.
And its leaf does not wither -- Maintains good health.
And whatever he does, he prospers. -- We succeed.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
