feed on the Word of God but just can’t figure out where to turn in it?
Today’s attached devotional will give you a great solution. God bless you.

Because of Calvary,
John Janney

• Psalm 1:1-6 (ESV)

  1 Blessed is the man
  who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,
  nor stands in the way of sinners,
  nor sits in the seat of scoffers;
  2 but his delight is in the law of the Lord,
  and on his law he meditates day and night.
  3 He is like a tree
  planted by streams of water
  that yields its fruit in its season,
  and its leaf does not wither.
  In all that he does, he prospers.
  4 The wicked are not so,
  but are like chaff that the wind drives away.
  5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
  nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;
  6 for the Lord knows the way of the righteous,
  but the way of the wicked will perish.

“If the Scripture is a spiritual rosary or garden, as St. Chrysostom said, the book of Psalms is a knot in this garden set with fragrant flowers. Luther called the Psalms a little Bible. The Psalms make sweeter music than ever David’s harp did. They are calculated for every Christian’s condition, and may serve either for illumination or consolation.” [Thomas Watson, The Mischief of Sin, ((Morgan, PA: Soli Deo Gloria Publications, 1671), p. 1]
