“Draw near toGod and He willdraw near to

you.” That’sJames 4:8.

The more I honorand love God,the easier it is

to make the right choices.

To showreverence to

God is also thefoundation oftrue wisdom. 

To “fear God” does not mean that we are afraid of Him, but that we honorand respect Him, and want to please Him in our thoughts and deeds. As we

obey God’s laws, this helps us to be wise and to choose what is right.

The fear of the Lord is the

beginning of wisdom.(Psalm 111:10 KJV)
