Week 3 - CH. 4 - 5

This week please read Chapter 4 - Lord Teach Me to Walk in Obedience to Your Ways and Chapter 5 - Lord, Strengthen Me to Stand Against the Enemy.

These chapters are short, so feel free to read ahead, and come back to comment as I post the relfection questions.

Psalm 1 (New International Version)

1 Blessed is the man
       who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked
       or stand in the way of sinners
       or sit in the seat of mockers. 
 
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
       and on his law he meditates day and night.

 3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water,
       which yields its fruit in season
       and whose leaf does not wither.
       Whatever he does prospers.

 4 Not so the wicked!
       They are like chaff
       that the wind blows away.

 5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
       nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

 6 For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous,
       but the way of the wicked will perish.
