The Way to Be Happy

The first Psalm is a microcosm of the whole Bible in that it outlines the doctrine of the two ways. There are ultimately two kinds of people in the world, those delighting in the ungodly ways of sinners, and those delighting in Christ. Psalm 1 describes the way of happiness of the blessed man – the Gospel man – the man who trusts and treasures Jesus Christ above all earthly things. He will be like a tree planted in the living waters, producing fruit in its season.
