Gospel Reflections #794: To Fear the Lord

Psalm 25:12 "Who is the man who fears the LORD? The LORD will show him the way he should choose."

To fear the Lord is to look to Him, to desire Him, to trust Him, to seek His guidance, and to depend on Him.

Our God is a God who loves us, forgives us, has mercy on us, encourages us, and guides us, even though He knows all our weaknesses, foolishness, and unbelief.

That is why we can look to Him and trust Him.

God prepares before us the way we need to go.

Even if we do not choose that path, He also prepares the way we need before us.

It is not God's doing with us as we please, but His guiding us so that we can walk the path to Him willingly.

We need to seek God more, need fellowship with Him and grow in His love through the circumstances in which we cry out to Him for help.
