May I be so blunt as to say that if you don’t have sense enough to fear the Lord you will never figure life out! Consider these verses. Proverbs 9:10, “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.” Proverbs 10:27, “The fear of the Lord adds length to life.” Proverbs 16:6, “Through fear of the Lord evil is avoided.” Proverbs 14:27, “The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, turning a person from the snares of death.”

“What does the Lord ask of you but to fear [Him], to walk in obedience to him, to love him, to serve [Him] with all your heart and with all your soul.”

— Deuteronomy 10:12 (NIV)

Lord teach us to fear You and to walk in obedience. Amen.
