the Two Ways and the Two Ends
[Psalms 1:1-6](../../../kjv/psalms/1/1-6)
****
Like a signpost, this psalm points the road to blessedness. The opening word may be read, “Oh, the blessedness!” The psalm begins with the same message as the Sermon on the Mount, [Matthew 5:1-48](../../../kjv/matthew/5/1-48) . Beneath the lintel of benediction we pass into the temple of praise.
Blessedness is obtainable in two ways: negatively, we may avoid the society of the irreligious; positively, we must enter the company of prophets and kings, of psalmists and historians, and especially of God Himself, speaking in Scripture. Do not simply read the Bible; *meditate* upon it. Better one verse really masticated than a whole chapter bolted.
The rewards are, to be planted by rivers, to bear fruit, and to prosper. See [Genesis 39:3-4](../../../kjv/genesis/39/3-4) ; [Genesis 49:22](../../../kjv/genesis/49/22) . How blessed it is, also, to realize that God knows and loves! See [Psalms 56:8](../../../kjv/psalms/56/8) . The sinner begins with ungodliness, goes on to scorning, and ends as chaff, [Matthew 13:30](../../../kjv/matthew/13/30) .
