Having such a deep reverence, awe, and respect for who He is that I don't want to live in a way that dishonors Him. It's recognizing that He is holy, righteous, all knowing, and the Creator of everything. It's understanding that one day I will give an account for how I lived, so His opinion matters more than the world's opinion.
Fearing God means I take His Word seriously, obey Him even when it's difficult, and hate the sin that separates me from Him. It's the kind of respect a loving child has for a good father... not wanting to disappoint him bc of the relationship, not bc of constant terror.
As Proverbs says, the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. The more we understand who God truly is, the more we stand in awe of Him and the more we desire to walk in obedience to Him. ❤️🙏🏻
