In Awe of God

Bible in a Year :

Do not be afraid. God has come to test you, so that the fear of God will be with you.

Exodus 20:20

A phobia is defined as the “irrational fear” of certain things or situations. Arachnophobia is a fear of spiders (though some might argue that’s a perfectly rational thing to be afraid of!). Then there’s globophobia and xocolatophobia. These and some four hundred other phobias are real and documented. It seems we can become afraid of most anything.

The Bible tells of the Israelites’ fear after receiving the Ten Commandments: “When the people saw the thunder and lightning . . . they trembled with fear” (Exodus 20:18). Moses comforted them, offering this most interesting statement: “Do not be afraid. God has come to test you, so that the fear of God will be with you” (v. 20). Moses seems to contradict himself: “Don’t be afraid but be afraid.” In fact, the Hebrew word for “fear” contains at least two meanings—a trembling terror of something or a reverent awe of God.

We may laugh to learn that globophobia is the fear of balloons and xocolatophobia is a fear of chocolate. The more serious bottom line about phobias is that we can be afraid of all kinds of things. Fears creep into our lives like spiders, and the world can be a scary place. As we struggle with phobias and fears, we do well to be reminded that our God is an awesome God, offering us His present comfort in the midst of darkness.

Reflect & Pray

What in your life are you afraid of? How does God’s love help you overcome those fears?

Dear God, I find myself afraid of so many things. Please comfort my heart, and help me to rest in Your love.

Hi Dolly....

Sadly, no pics (although I still have the skirt and vest and matching pin lol). That was back in the days when there was no extra money to spend on things like cameras and video recorders. I have no movies of the kids when they were young. Sure was much different in the pre-phone era.

I hope you get a reprieve from the heat today! We’re down to very pleasant temperatures now. Sun in shining and there’s not a chemtrail in the sky - nice to see for a change!

I’ve got to start chowing down on the many lettuces I have in this raised bed lol. They are growing so fast, as is everything! I’m keeping my eye on the rhubarb plants and as soon as those stalks are ready for a rhubarb pie, they’re getting chopped as well!

Morning all!

Interesting thoughts

<>

You start dying slowly ;

if you do not travel,
if you do not read,
If you do not listen to the sounds of life,
If you do not appreciate yourself.

You start dying slowly :
When you kill your self-esteem,
When you do not let others help you.

You start dying slowly ;
If you become a slave of your habits,
Walking everyday on the same paths…
If you do not change your routine,
If you do not wear different colours
Or you do not speak to those you don’t know.

You start dying slowly :
If you avoid to feel passion
And their turbulent emotions;
Those which make your eyes glisten
And your heart beat fast.

You start dying slowly :
If you do not risk what is safe for the uncertain
If you do not go after a dream
If you do not allow yourself
At least once in your lifetime
To run away from sensible advice
Don’t let yourself die slowly
Do not forget to be happy!

~ Pablo Neruda♡

Chilean poet who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971
Via Rumi
