Good and upright is the LORD;
     therefore he instructs sinners in his ways.
He guides the humble in what is right
     and teaches them his way.
All the ways of the LORD are loving and faithful
     for those who keep the demands of his covenant.
For the sake of your name, O LORD,
     forgive my iniquity, though it is great.
Who, then, is the man that fears the LORD?
     He will instruct him in the way chosen for him.
He will spend his days in prosperity,
     and his descendants will inherit the land.
The LORD confides in those who fear him;
     he makes his covenant known to them.
(Psalms 25:8-14 (NIV))

God is good!

All the time!

He will provide for those who fear Him.

This fear is a fear of respect, not a fear of punishment and retribution.

God wishes for us to be in a relationship with Him, but He wishes it to be of our own decision. When it is our decision, it will be honest and true. If it were truly based on fear of retribution, then it would not be an honest yearning to be with God. It would be based on intimidation!

God will reward those who seek His face and wish to live after His own heart. If you are sincerely seeking God's will, then God will allow you into His heart by revealing His Truth to you. His Truth will become your truth.

What is true for you?

Do you trust in the Lord?
