Psalm 1
Chapter Summary
The Tree of Your Life
We will be spending months and months in Psalms. They are the heart of the Bible—a textbook of prayer and song that shows us we can pray with every emotion of our hearts, good or bad, and in the end, always come back to God’s love for us. If you are a girl, read “she” where the speaker says “he.” These prayers are for you, too. This first one paints a lovely picture of a godly life growing like a tree, fruiting in season and continuing to grow as long as its roots are in the everlasting spring of living water brought by the Holy Spirit. How is your tree right now?

Psalm 1:3Psalm 1
KJV
1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
3 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.
4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6 For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
