#blessed

In recent years, our modern world has made the idea of being #blessed popular once again; but what we ascribe as blessing, may not be what the Psalmist originally intended. The Hebrew word that begins Psalm 1, commonly translated as blessed, is actually the word for happiness. As we start another year, we all desire happiness - and Psalm 1 tells us how to get it! This true happiness is found in the avoidance of evil and the embrace of righteousness, beginning with God's Word. Together, we'll explore the beautiful picture the Psalmist paints of the one who delights in God's truth as we start a new year.
