Fear of the Lord<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

May all understanding, wisdom, insight, whatever that God has planted in our heart…<\/span><\/p>\n

May all of them bring us to ‘fear of the Lord.’<\/span><\/p>\n

Not being frightened on Him.<\/span><\/p>\n

But to honor Him, to obey His commands, and to avoid what He dislikes.<\/span><\/p>\n

May all of that would be reflected in our life…<\/span><\/p>\n

As a beautiful testimony which is more important than sweet words on our lips or merely memorizing the Bible verses.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

My son,\u00a0if you accept my words
\nand store up my commands within you,
\n2\u00a0turning your ear to wisdom
\nand applying your heart to understanding\u2014
\n3\u00a0indeed, if you call out for insight
\nand cry aloud for understanding,
\n4\u00a0and if you look for it as for silver
\nand search for it as for hidden treasure,
\n5\u00a0then you will understand the fear of the\u00a0Lord
\nand find the knowledge of God.<\/span><\/p>\n

— Proverbs 2:1-5<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Takut akan Tuhan<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Semua kepandaian, hikmat, pengertian, yang Tuhan tanamkan di dalam hati kita…<\/span><\/p>\n

Semoga kesemuanya itu selalu membawa kita menuju takut akan Tuhan.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bukan diliputi ketakutan.<\/span><\/p>\n

Namun, menghormati Dia, tunduk pada perintah-Nya, menjauhi larangan-Nya.<\/span><\/p>\n

Semoga semuanya itu terlihat dalam kehidupan kita.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sebagai sebuah kesaksian yang indah, yang lebih penting dari sekadar ucapan manis di bibir atau hafalan akan ayat-ayat alkitab semata.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hai anakku,\u00a0\u00a0jikalau engkau menerima perkataanku dan menyimpan perintahku\u00a0\u00a0di dalam hatimu,\u00a02:2<\/a>\u00a0sehingga telingamu memperhatikan hikmat, dan engkau mencenderungkan hatimu kepada kepandaian,\u00a0\u00a0\u00a02:3<\/a>\u00a0ya, jikalau engkau berseru kepada pengertian\u00a0,\u00a0dan menujukan suaramu kepada kepandaian,\u00a02:4<\/a>\u00a0jikalau engkau mencarinya seperti mencari perak, dan mengejarnya seperti mengejar harta terpendam,\u00a0\u00a0\u00a02:5<\/a>\u00a0maka engkau akan memperoleh pengertian tentang takut akan TUHAN dan mendapat pengenalan akan Allah<\/p>\n
