Prov 1:7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge…Prov 14:27 The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life… Prov 3:7 Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord, & turn away from evil. Prov 31:29-30 Many women have done excellently, but you surpass them all. Charm is deceitful, & beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised. Psalm115:11 You who fear the Lord, trust in the Lord! He is their help & their shield. Psalm145:19 He fulfills the desire of those who fear Him; He also hears their cry & saves them. — The Hebrew word “fear of the Lord” is translated as ‘yirah” which means awe! If we ever could fully realize the love God has for us, we would see the awe in this life. He works to move us from glory to glory bringing us closer to Himself with each moment. In the 23rd Psalm, He tells us that He is our Shepherd leading us in paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. Even though We walk through the valley of the shadow of death, We should fear no evil, for He is with us; His rod & staff, they provide comfort to us. Love Mel
