Our lives generally have many 1,000’s of days along with a few major milestones. Many of us focus on these milestones. Some of these may be related to career, education, financial freedom, health, spiritual growth etc.
A 20 year old may have over 7,000 days and perhaps 10 major events. While a 40 year old may have 15,000 days and perhaps 20 key events at that point of time.
Fear of God has many blessings associated with it. It has many virtues and benefits. Whereas fear of man, we should not have. This is a snare as per the Bible. The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD shall be safe. (Proverbs 29:25 NKJV)
Fear of God is associated with Wisdom. The Bible states that fear of God is the beginning of Wisdom. Here is the specific verse. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. (Proverbs 9:10 NKJV)

Behold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear Him, On those who hope in His mercy. (Psalms 33:18 NKJV)
