Overview

The word “blessed” in Hebrew is much richer than it is English. It means total fulfillment and well-being. How do we get that?

The answer in Psalm 1 is that blessedness comes to a person who has learned to meditate on the law of the Lord. That’s an enormous promise. So let’s ask ourselves what we can learn about meditation, which is one of the disciplines by which we work grace into every nook and cranny of our lives.

Psalm 1 teaches us four things about meditation: 1) the promise of meditation, 2) the principle of meditation, 3) the practice of meditation, and 4) the puzzle of meditation.
