Psalm 1 and 2

Here were some of my thoughts as I was reading the 2 passages.

Psalm 1.
It starts with what we do (where we walk, sit, stand) but ties it together with what we think (v.2) - our actions are a result of what we meditate on. Our actions should be motivated by our thoughts - there is something behind "why we do what we do." If we walk and sit and stand with "sinners" its because we're not meditating the way we need to on the Scripture.

V.3 talks about "be what you are" - you're a fruit tree - you should be bearing fruit. And that fruit is a result of v2 - it happens as a reusult of what we set our minds on (thoughts).I read this in German too for another perspective.

Verse 2 talks about our desire being towards the ways of God. The German word for desire is basically the same as the English word for lust. Am I pursuing God with that much passion? With a lustful desire - I've "got to" have Him to be satisfied? Or am I just merely floating by the wind? The way to be planted is literally to lust after God - to want Him more than everything else.

Psalm 2.
the first part is talking about how futile it is to "plan" life without God - either plan how it should go with no regard to Him or plan it against His will - they're both the same - I'm taking control.

But what is His response? You're my son! You're my child! I've adopted you. I have promised to bless and protect those who run to me.

So, you're confused? You want to be planning? The answer isn't in receiving an answer, its in receiving comfort, protection and love and care from ME!
