Hi guys, just testing my blogging skills.
I can tell you that my life is changing everyday and God reveals just a little bit more of Himself to me everyday. We had a teaching on the fear of God the other day, what a revelation. IN the Bible, the fear of God, is described as the start or essential ingredient for wisdom. Loving and obeying and serving God is all good, but without the fear of God, you are not getting the full package.
God has two fairly opposing traits. He is the God of the children's bible who showers us with His love and takes care of us like a glorified father christmas bouncing you on his knee. On the other side though, we have an almighty, awesome, holy God who is righteous and cant be in the presence of sin. The kind of God that is sitting on the throne like the king He is and all you can do is fall flat on your face cause you might just cease to exist if you utter a single word. His radiance is hot and bright like the sun.
Don't get me wrong, I don't want you to be afraid of God, but we need to have a holy respect for Him. He created you and everything around you and He deserves your praise and honour.
His loving side is the side that will heal and protect you, but his holy, righteous side is the one that will refine you into a more Christlike being. And by the word "refine", you can already see that this process will be painful and will come at a cost. We need both side of God to be in our lives for us to live surrendered lives. He is the guy you can chat to any time of the day, but He is also GOD!!!
Just something for you to chew on.
Ciao
