"The Fear of the Lord is the foundation of true
knowledge (the beginning of Wisdom),
But fools despise wisdom and discipline."
Prov 1:7
Fearing the Lord is a healthy respect for Him.
Be sensitive to what He requires...
I am talking about Relationship with the Spirit of God, not religion.
If you LOVE Me, You will OBEY Me...He says.
You just don't wake up one day and Love Him.
You Hear His Voice and you respond.
This is a continual walk. This is the whole 'enchilada' of honest Christianity.
You don't have to be in a church to experience God.
He is Everywhere.
The Fear of man often leads us into the low areas of life.
Fear of disappointing people.
Fear of failure...Fear of confrontation.
You are Wise, if you make a choice rooted in:
Pleasing and Obeying God.
Even if it means, losing a few people around you.
You will always be rewarded for that choice.
He gives Beauty for Ashes...
Many a time I have brought my ashes before Him.
He has always accepted me. Because the way has been made open.
I have not 'arrived'. I am under construction and He is not finished with me yet.
It is not easy, and painful at times, but the reward....worth it.
(like a mommy in labor, pain comes first, then joy...
that joy is so great, you don't remember the pain!)
It is my birthday today. I am 30!
I would like to take this time to Thank the Living God
for these 30 years. No Regrets!
The Past behind me
Living in the present
entrusting my future to Him.
Thank You Abba, for giving me Life.
For walking this walk with Me.
For showing up, when few,
sometimes no one,was there.
I will praise you forever.
Because of this, I will not keep quiet
about You.
May my life be pleasing to You.
that I would fear You only...
My husband and my daughter;
Thank you for your love and all the fun
times and laughs we have together.
May there be many more.
