Have you ever tried to break a habit that was really ingrained? It’s extremely difficult. Sometimes you must take drastic measures by removing the temptation to perform the habit entirely. For example, some people are automatically doomed when the Krispy Kreme light is on during their morning commute. They will always stop. To break the habit, they have to completely avoid that path to work. This psalm suggests that the blessed person will avoid the very activities that will harm them. We should do the same.
