Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom!

Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom!  In Proverbs we read that a little fear of the Lord is better than great wealth with turmoil.

As Christians today we face trials and tribulations in almost every situation every day.  We have to face the traffic on our way to work and meetings.  We have conflict situations to deal with in our dealings with people. We listen to the news and the world is full of turmoil and conflict. 

However, when we are alone with our God, our Creator, we can spend time in quiet reflection.  We can talk quietly to God without the white noise around us.  We can pray to God quietly and await His responses to us.

Let us today make a conscious effort to spend more quiet time with God and know that when we talk about fear of the Lord, it is not about being scared of God, it is more about appreciating His enormous presence here on earth and in our lives.  It is about the absolute might of a God who can achieve anything!

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank You that I have a direct line to Your presence through Your Son, Jesus Christ.  I thank You that I can speak to You daily and I thank You that I can read Your word to me today.  

I pray today Father, that You will always be with me.  I pray this in the name of my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.  Amen. 

Stay God Blessed!
