Perhaps one of the reasons I've never lived my life in "fear" of God (the negative kind of fear I'm talking about - not the healthy kind of respect and awe and holy "fear" that we're instructed to have) is because I had a father who was such a wonderful male role model. I never had to worry about not being able to trust him. He was always there and I admired and respected him so much.
It must leave a huge hole in a person's life to have missed that. |
Doesn't a thread like this cause you to go study yourself? I think we all realize there's not any study going on here - just opinions, yet it makes you go dig in the scriptures or dig in your heart to see what's there - - I'd call that study.
