have a healthy fear of God

hey y'all!
im pooped. i just got home from dance. and amy worked us really hard tonight. today was B day at school, i really dislike B day. bleh. today was another eh...alright day. im a little stressed about something right now...but God will make it okay :] im still workin on the GodStock thing, handed out more cards today! theres so many people with them at school. im really excited about it. i hope 1000 students show up! i know God can do it!
my devotion was on having a healthy fear [or great respect] of God. Hebrews 12:28 says, "Therefore, since we are reciving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe." we need to have a healthy fearful respect for God's power. real wisdom begins with a tremendous respect for Gods awesome power. God praises humility. so that is what we should show him. his greatest servents are humble people. we need not to care for our glory, but for the glory of God! my devotion book says "In God's kingdom the only way to acheive greatness is to shun it." and thats very true. we werent put here to gain glory for ourselves, our soul purpose is to live to glorify our Creator. God is all-knowing, and all-powerful, we must respect him and obey his commandments. because with pride, theres consequences. we need to respect God and be very fearful of disobeying him. God is great, and he deserves respect. remember, he created you, and this entire universe you live in. so show him some respect!
i love y'all!
God Bless!
