Be A Tree! (Psalm 1) | Cabe Matthews

The biblical book of Psalms begins with a profound reflection on the good, wise life. The psalmist contrasts the example of the wicked with that of someone whose delight is in God’s law. That person doesn’t walk, stand, or sit with sin. Instead, she is like a “tree planted by streams of water.” Fruitful, prospering, flourishing. We spend so much time comparing ourselves with other people, as if they are the ones we are called to follow. But the wicked are on a road leading to destruction, while God watches over his righteous people. We need to attend very carefully to who it is that we are patterning our lives after. In a world of chaos and uncertainty, make sure your life is firmly planted in the Lord!
