Why do we so often struggle to live the blessed life?

· We follow our SINFUL passions & pleasures

· We stand with the crowd out of fear rather than boldly trusting in God above all things

The Blessed man…

· stands up in the crowd against the tide of opinion and oppression ()

· makes the LAW of the LORD his passion ()

· receives life and strength from God ()

· bears fruit to the glory of God ()

· prospers under the blessing of God ()

· is confident that being righteous before God is by grace ()
