I was writing a comment my son's blog, Le Dynamique Professeur, today when this inspiration to write this post came up.
What is my fear? What of yours too?
We definitely all have our fears. Yours might be different from mine.
Beware of your fear. What you fear may happen to you eventually.
Job in the Bible said: "For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me."(Job 3:25).
In one of her famous speeches, Aung San Suu Kyi, the Nobel Peace Winner from Myanmar, once said: "It is not power that corrupts but fear. Fear of losing power corrupts those who wield it and fear of the scourge of power corrupts those who are subject to it."
What you fear of losing, you will eventually lose. Somebody once said that why they were many dictators in history was the fear of losing power to another.
There is however one Fear, all of us should have.
It is the Fear of God Almighty, our Maker, Creator and Former.
He is the Infinite, Invisible and Immortal Being ruling over the Heaven and Earth.
My advice: Fear nothing or nobody but God.
What is the Fear of God?
It is the hatred for Evil.
For in God there is Godliness and Goodness.
It promotes. It exalts. It is a lifter.
Men and Women in history like Job, Daniel, Samuel,
Joseph, Martin Luther King, Mother Theresa, etc were
Honoured and lifted because they feared God.
I choose the Fear of God and I treasure it.
I pray for more of His Fear in my heart daily.
What you can picture, you can capture,
What you can believe, you can become (anonymous).
Do you want to choose His fear above Gold or Silver or any possession?
It is your choice.
Thanks for the time to read; please, I would welcome your comments.
