Day 19 - PSALM (The Blessed Man)
Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful; But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he meditates day and night. He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper. (Psalm 1:1-3)
There is nothing more that I aspire for myself than to be a blessed man as the Psalmist described above. I have tried to live according this godly counsel from the time I have accepted Christ as my Lord and Savior although, no doubt, I have fallen short each time and still fall short. But praise God He does not require perfection before He blesses us; He has blessed my life beyond anything I deserve or could ever imagine. Foremost is the gift of salvation through my Savior Jesus Christ and then He blessed me with a wonderful wife and children. Then, wonder of wonders, God has chosen to call me to the ministry as a pastor. Truly, blessed is anyone who will commit his life completely to follow and obey God!
