To have "awe" of God 2. To have respect for His power and Glory 3. It is also proper understanding and respect for His wrath and anger. It is positive rather than negative. The "fear" of the Lord and the love of the Lord work together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To know that He spoke this world in existence. That everything that there is He created. To know that He loves me and will never leave me or forsake me. Loving me just where I'm at and asking no questions. Knowing that Jesus came here and died for my sins. Knowing He rose again three days later conquering death so that I may too conquer death and one day be in Heaven where I will spend eternity. That is what it is to me. Good question Miss.

This is the begin of wisdom to seek outside of one's self and all the while denying the prejudice of all influence that comes from self and from that which self is contained... It is in this place of helplessness we cry out to Jesus and in fear of what we are we plead to be other- it is that we do not know yet ask in this emptiness of being! As we grow in the supernatural new birth that God initiates by Himself coming into us by His Person The Holy Spirit we are now made able to accept that which is kept outside of the sensual first begin in a faith based perception made more real than the tangibles that are passing away... in this we are given Love that 'IS' what it 'IS' the source of Life's eternal nectar of nourishment and no longer are our bellies the importance of continuance with God forever without end... The fear how does one thank God for the gift of Himself? It is done by keeping what He tells us to do in this love... Love, Steven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
