We make decisions everyday…some are quick and rash, others come after careful and well thought out deliberation. Some of these decisions have eternal consequences attached to them. The Writer of this Psalm has prudently considered his life, and has chosen what he feels is the morally right thing to do. He would rather have the lowly position of Doorman at the Temple than be around the godless.He would rather spend what little time he had with the Lord, than anywhere else. We make decisions everyday…make ones that have lasting effects.
