Scared of Who?
I'm truly thankful to live where I do and cannot imagine living in a place where worshiping and even acknowledging God may put you face to face with someone who wants to kill you. If that ever happened, how could you not be scared. Yet Jesus says not to fear people but to fear God. This comparison is hard for me....I respond emotionally to the thought of someone threatening my life, but somehow there's a disconnect and I don't have near the same response when it comes to God - I picture Him more as loving, forgiving and accepting even though I recognize He could send people to hell. Maybe I need to be a little more scared of God.
