Oh, the joys of those who do not
follow the advice of the wicked,
or stand around with sinners,
or join in with mockers. But they delight in the law of the Lord,
meditating on it day and night.
They are like trees planted along the riverbank,
bearing fruit each season.
Their leaves never wither,
and they prosper in all they do.

But not the wicked!
They are like worthless chaff, scattered by the wind.
They will be condemned at the time of judgment.
Sinners will have no place among the godly.
For the Lord watches over the path of the godly,
but the path of the wicked leads to destruction.

Has been feeding off the True Vine and has discernment to see the difference between Godly and ungodly counsel. He is happy, fulfilled and content following the ways of His Shepherd. What makes you happy is important to you. The knowledge has been given to him through prayer and the word. He joyfully walks the road less traveled with his Savior. He thinks on the word , ponders it, dwells on it.
"As meditation is spiritual practice, so contemplation is spiritual encounter. In meditation, we practice our spirit. In contemplation, we encounter God, awakening within or without, in an unfolding revelation". He is firmly planted by the flowing spring, the Living Water. His roots are deep that makes him strong and stable. His righteousness produces healthy fruit. He is prosperous, he allows God to work all things together for his good. The Lord lead, guides and directs his path.
