Tuesday's slice of bread

A weekly post premised on this: Whoever gives thought to the word will discover good, and blessed is he who trusts in the Lord (Prov. 16:20)

Do you give much thought to what it means to fear God? To fear Him as the Bible requires? Do you give much consideration to the outcome of rightly fearing Him? When I have, it has brought me to my knees in wonder and in breathlessness.

When We Fear God

When we fear God we
Tremble before His holiness
Are grateful for His sacrifice (which involved the Godhead),
Repent and obey and disobey and repent,
Revel in His Fatherhood once adopted into His eternal family,
Repent over and over of sin for all sins are ultimately against Him,
Enjoy His forgiveness,
Experience His discipline,
Rest in His infinite unchangingness,
Bow before His throne in service in worship and in praise in Christ
When we fear God
