Loading his argument with proof, David makes a case that it is best to trust God. The blessings are numerous; to reject God is painful. I see two sections in the Psalm -- I base my arc on the word "for" that is only found in the ESV (so it may be questionable). The first (1-8) lays out the reasons for the state of blessing. The second (9-11) then infers that one would be wise to trust in God -- to have God as one's God.
