Hello @Lifelong_sinner
Having come to accept the notion that one day passing away from this life, to stand before the creator, is why I fear God. If we seen God today as Moses did on the mountain, I’m sure we would all tremble in fear. The fear for me isn’t so much of being scared or afraid, it’s more of a respect and Awe at whom He is being God who spoke everything into existence by his Word.
Do you have the same thoughts on this matter? (Having come closer to God (draw near to God and he will draw near to you) I accept my faults, and sometimes I can be impatient with others, and I have judged people in my mind and down play them — in these dark thoughts of my heart the only source I run to is Jesus, who has done everything we could not do, and it brings me to being thankful (for what he has done for all people) and I ask him to help me get rid of those dark thoughts when they arise and plague me).
Love you brother.
