"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom." (Proverbs 9:10).
'The fear of the Lord' is not understood to mean to be afraid of the Lord. Rather is it meant to mean to respect and knowledge the purpose and plan that God has over your life.
"But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure, then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy, good fruit, impartial and sincere." (James 3:17).
Each of these characteristics mentioned in James is its own challenge to pursue. And that's the point. To fully manifest God's wisdom in our lives is to ask and determine if what we say and do is consistent with manifesting God's wisdom in our living in our world. Quite the challenge for sure.
Be kind. God loves you. God is in charge.

"May the God of hope bring you such joy and peace in your faith that the power of the Holy Spirit will remove all bounds to hope." (Romans:15:13).
God is always wanting to lead us to our next better place. God encourages us to trust him that no matter where we are he wants us to experience more joy and peace. Trust in the Lord
Be kind. God love you and God is in charge.

" ... those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint."( Isa. 40:31. NIV.)
The Oxford Dictionary definition of 'hope' is "a feeling of expectation and desire for a certain thing to happen." e.g. 'I hope my team will win their game this weekend.'
In the bible to 'hope in the Lord' is to live with the certainty of the fulfillment of the promises that God has made to us. Hence we are able to soar like eagles and renew our strength in the Lord even as the circumstances of our lives appear difficult and hard to engage. God's promises are God saying that he is watching over us always and forever. God is good. God loves us and God is in charge.
Be kind. God loves you and God is in charge.

Jesus was asked "Which is the first of all the commandments?" Jesus replied, ... you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: You must love your neighbor as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these." (Mark 12:29-31).
To love your God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength is to enter into an unconditional love relationship with God; just as He loves you. To love your neighbor as you love yourself is to commit your relationship with your neighbors to the same level of love that you want to receive from them (Do unto others as you would have them do unto you).
This summary from Jesus is demanding , but as you pursue to follow God's directions He will bless you with all His love. Let's all try to follow God's instructions for our relationship with Him and with all of his children throughout hia world.
Be kind. God loves you and God is in charge.

Almighty and eternal God, so draw our hearts to you, so guide our minds, so fill our imaginations, so control our wills, that we may be wholly yours, utterly dedicated to you; and then use us, we pray, as you will, and always to your glory, and the welfare of your people; through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen. (A Prayer of Self-Dedication, BCP, pp. 832-833).
Are we willing to dedicate all that we are to God's direction over our lives? Are we willing to pursue God's purpose and plan over our lives and give up our desires to accomplish God's desires for us? Lets be willing to do so and receive God's blessings as our payments for our faithfulness.
Be kind. God loves you and God is on charge.
