David extols the blessings of following God in Psalm 16. He states that God is the only inheritance in which he has an interest. He will associate only with those who also follow God and His ways; those who are God's enemies will be considered David's enemies. Only in this way can life be truly joyful and rewarding.
In the 17th psalm David considers the joy that it is to know God hears when David speaks to Him. God is aware of the situations David faces and will uphold that which is right. David is privileged to be considered one of God's possessions and joys. He looks forward to the ultimate blessing of being in God's physical presence one day and finding himself a pure reflection of God's character.
