Scripture Reading
Psalm 1:1-3
Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night. That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither — whatever they do prospers.
Reflection
The first psalm paints a vivid contrast: the person anchored in God's Word is a tree whose roots reach water, unshaken by drought or storm. The image is one of life-giving stability — not rigidity, but the kind of groundedness that allows one to bear fruit in every season. What we meditate on shapes us: fix your thoughts today on what is true, good, and holy.
Prayer for Today
Beautiful Lord, Purify my heart. Grant me Your divine wisdom, as I make You the center of my life, King Jesus. Guide me in all that I do. Save me from pride, arrogance, doubt, and fear.
Lead me to victory, where the waters are calm, the earth is still, and where I overlook the trials from the mountaintop, with peace in my heart, knowing I have survived the storm. In Jesus name I pray, Amen
