Devotions - Psalm 1:19
"Happy are those whose way is blameless, who walks in the law of the Lord."
At first this verse may seem to be unnecessarily burdensome. Who, after all, could even imagine that this way is innocent? Life seems to be too complicated for that type of demand. However, as you ponder the wisdom in this verse, it does make more sense. Here are two observations to consider. The first is that the less trouble we cause others, that is the less we are to be blamed, the simpler and more complete our lives will be. The second is that the "law," meaning the God inspired way of life, is a great gift. That is the example we see repeatedly in Jesus' life. It can be a gift to us.
