A Closer Look at His Glory -- continuing the process
I have been trying to understand how to fear the Lord for ages now. I have been trying to separate myself from the need I have for humanity’s wisdom and replace it with the (far superior) wisdom of God. As I studied, contemplated, meditated on these ideas through the reading of Proverbs and Jerry Bridges’, The Joy of Fearing God, I found that I couldn’t change because I couldn’t try to imagine His greatness that I should be in awe of. I kept and keep praying that I would fear Him – as our relationship should make me fear. In the last month or so I have gone through some modes of fear. The first mode, I have seen before in my life and is a prison.
