The Blessed Way
Psalm 1

Blessed is the man...

Blessed, this man is blessed. Why do you think that is? What makes him that way?

What he does not do...

...that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

What he does do...

But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in His law doth he meditate day and night.

What he is like... planted, fruitful, prosperous.

And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

What the ungodly are like... blown away, not able to stand.

The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away. Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

Which way will you go?

For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

The LORD only knows one way. It's the right way. He's the one who made the rules. He's the one in charge. Will you walk away from Him, or will you walk His way?
