Psalm 1

It is a great Psalm of contrast between the godly man and the wicked man. Yet the both seem to have these characteristics in common:

  1. Both were driven. One was driven by the Word of God and planted by the living waters. The other is driven by the wind of circumstance, profanity, and self-deception to which he yields.
  2. Both are separated. One separates himself from the wicked. The other is separated unto wickedness.
  3. Both live the lifestyles they have given themselves.
  4. Both reach their destination. One is blessedness, the other is doom.

Man can live a way, a truth, and a life; but only the Way (v.1), the Truth (v.2) and the Life (v.3) are found in Jesus—John 14:6. He is the way to blessedness.
