Psalm 16 sets forth two paths: one looks to the Lord as the source of all good, and leads to life and fullness of joy. The other path involves running after another god, results in multiplied sorrows along the way, and ends in corruption in the depths of Sheol. Looking at these two paths, David gladly takes refuge in God, and makes the Lord his chosen portion. Following God’s path brings delight, and so David worships and blesses the Lord. As you come to worship today, may your heart do the same.
