What is fear? It is considered a negative emotion, for the most part. Though in reference to our "fear of God" I choose to look at this positively. One definition of fear is : "a feeling of deep reverential awe." That can define my "fear of God". God is our all powerful Creator and is deserving of our complete love, our "everything we are, everything we do." He alone is worthy of our soul, our love. No one else, nothing else, should keep us, or take us out of His presence. If you are within the presence of God, no fear exists, it is only another word. God is love and Love is stronger than any other emotion, if you trust God. "Everything is possible to one who trusts God." Mark 9:23
Matthew 6:19-34
" I warn you then, do not worry about your livelihood, what you are to eat or drink, or use for clothing. Is not life more than food? Is not the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the sky. They do not sow or reap, they gather nothing into barns. Are not you more important than they? Which of you by worrying can add a moment to your life-span? As for clothes, why be concerned? Learn a lesson from the way the wild flowers grow. They do not work, they do not spin. Yet I assure you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was arrayed like one of these. If God can clothe in such splendor, the grass of the field, which blooms today and is thrown on the fire tomorrow, will He not provide much more for you? Oh weak in faith! Stop worrying then over questions like, "what are we to eat, or what are we to drink, or what are we to wear?' The unbelievers are always running after these things. Your heavenly Father knows all that you need. Seek first His kingship over you, His way of holiness and all these things will be given you besides. Enough, then, of worrying about tomorrow. Let tomorrow take care of itself. Today has troubles enough of its own."
Verse 21
" Remember, where your treasure is, there your heart is also." Thank You, Jesus.
