A friend of mine wrote in his journal, The Following, Oh God, I'm so afraid what will happen if you move mindily in my life. But God, I'm more afraid that you won't. Listen, if you've never stood before God and then afraid you've never stood before God, it was an idol. He is God. He is sovereign and he can be very scary. But let me tell you something else, if you're a believer and have never stood before God and been loved, you've never stood before God either. That was an idol too. Another something the most difficult thing in the world is to understand the holiness of God and the love of God and not miss either. Let's try to remember God is not safe, but he is kind. He's sovereign and awesome, but he's your father. I'm Steve Brown of Key Life Network. You think about that. Key Life on the Internet at keylife.org
