TRUE BLESSEDNESS ° It 'has been said that the word blessed,',' in our Enghhsh King James, Aible, simOly means happy. Thus the "blessed man" pf JPsalm 1 is a happy man and thea' "blessed God" of I Tim. 1:11 is a happy God. To say' the (east this rs a super- ficial understanding—or /)'sunder- , standing—pf'one of°the most won- can be happy, a drunkard can be happy, a wicked man can be happy, .'but•rfone of these are truly blessed, for one wh,o is blessed has -a deep and true reason to rejoice. Thus Psa.- 1:1,2• says that the man who Shuns :the counsel of the ungodly,' "the way of sinners"' and "the seat of the scornful" and meditates and d.elig L,,i.n the law of God, is wet/ off arils has good reason to rejoice. Few; of course, would dare to claim that they have ,fully livred up to this passage in the Psalms, but God's Word has 'good news even for such,' In rbans 4:6.8 St. Paul declares-: Nile • ''David also d e s c r i b e t h the blessedness of the man unto whom God''nntputeth rn•ghteQusness with- out works, saying, Blessed are they,•whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered, Blessed is .the man to WhOIiI the Lord .uni,IL r" iot imj3ute man,, Thi ,.blessedness "is not a mere fd&fiV Y't$' rii'e lu.''.1r rs....cart' ¢'r the state of being we// oft, •wrthu• deep and abiding reason to rejoice. Thus Osalm 40:•4 says: "ptessed i 'rhe man that maketh the Lord his trust."" and when the,- Galatians stopped trusting completely in the Lord and began lea°nrri on their own works, the apostle asked them: "Whe're is then the blessedness ye spake of?" (Gal, 4:15)., To, be truly blessed, then, is to be we(/ oft with the greatest possible reason to rejoice. Th'rs is why the believer in Christ, saved and eternally safe in Him, is, like God Himself, "blessed for ever- more"' (II Cor. 11:31).
