My path in life with Jesus by my side

This was the bible verse that was discussed at my first bible study. 

Psalms 1-41

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.

I was at first I was confused by this verse. Jesus went out into the world to minister. He surrounded himself with sinners (prostitutes tax collectors,murders), to teach them God's word. Aren't we saposed to do the same? 

But then the conversation amongst us evolved. They interpreted the verse as such..  You must be rooted in the word, so not to be turned to the "DARK SIDE!" 

Reading the bible daily is now something I am making a priority! I've heard it takes 2 weeks to make something stick. I read the bible from time to time. But now I'm going make it happen every day for the next 2 weeks, and they hopefully for ever!
