We are God’s creation. The works of our hand, glorifies God. As a farmer, scientist, servant, waiter, chef, pilot, teacher, whatever be our work. We are meant to Glorify God.
I commit my works to the Lord. And my thoughts will be established. (Proverbs 16:3)
Whatever work I do, I do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men. (Colossians 3:23)
Fear of God is very good and it’s to be desired greatly. Fear of God is the beginning of Wisdom. This is mentioned in the Holy Bible in the Book of Proverbs, Psalms and Job. Fear of God will lead us to obey God’s commandments. This will keep us from making excuses and stepping aside from the will of God expressed in God’s laws and the commandments. We will seek to always please God. I can imagine the wicked ways I could have taken if I had no fear of God. At the same time, I sincerely wish I had more knowledge and awareness of the fear of God, prompting me to follow His commandments more often, from an early age. Only if I had loved God more, I would have spent more time understanding His laws and observed His commands in greater fear and love.
We know from the Bible that fear of man is a snare – it is to be hated and it is to be totally avoided. It restricts us, limits us. Pleasing people I have often become hypocritical. I have missed God’s will and purpose for my life because of fear of man.
