Here is today’s Bible reading: 2 Chronicles 4:1-6:11; Romans 7:1-13; Psalm 17:1-15; Proverbs 19:22-23.
Proverbs 19:23 (NIV)
The fear of the Lord leads to life:
Then one rests content, untouched by trouble.
I have heard it said that if you truly fear God (seek Him, trust Him, worship Him, obey Him) then you need not fear anything else. Said another way, if God is for us, then who or what can be against us?
Psalm 17:6-7 (NIV)
I call on you, O God, for you will answer me;
give ear to me and hear my prayer.
[7] Show the wonder of your great love,
you who save by your right hand
those who take refuge in you from their foes.
Like the Apostle Paul, I want more than anything to know Christ (Phil. 3:10). I do not want to simply know about Him. I want to know Him-- personally, intimately, and experientially. It is not enough for me to hear about Him. I want to see Him with my own eyes.

Along with new found humility, I have gained a new perspective on the fruits of obedience. And my life has changed. I actually feel like a different person. Which is the true meaning I think, of being transformed by the renewing of your mind. “)
