Like last week, I guess I will plan on creating a second post/story for the Thursday Night, Sunday morning and Sunday early afternoon games and I will post the link here after I publish that story!

¹ Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers,² but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night.³ That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither— whatever they do 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.

A wise son heeds his father’s instruction,    but a mocker does not respond to rebukes.

² From the fruit of their lips people enjoy good things,    but the unfaithful have an appetite for violence.
